HTML - How Can I Make My Text Box Taller?
Hello,
I want to create a large text box. I have the following code: Code: <td class="CellInput"> <input type="text" size="150" textarea style="height:200px" name="information" id="informationId"> And here is the relevant CSS: Code: .CellInput {
background-color: white;
border: none;
color: black;
font-family: verdana,Arial,tahoma,sans-serif;
font-size: 9.0pt;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0px;
padding: 2px 2px;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: left;
vertical-align: bottom;
white-space: normal;
}
.CellInput INPUT,
.CellInput SELECT,
.CellInput TEXTAREA {
border: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
The box that my code generates is nice and tall...but you can only type in the first horizontal row...you can't press enter and go down to lower rows. I don't know whether there's something wrong with the box, and/or there's something somewhere preventing me from using enter. Does anyone have any ideas on how I could modify the above to make a nice, tall, usable box? I don't see anything that specifies height in the CSS above! I am still an HTML newbie, so it is very possible (probable?) that I am missing something obvious. Thanks in advance! Similar TutorialsI have this strange problem... my text in Firefox is taller then IE... html in valid w3c and css the same... what can I do ? please help ... My main pages have a thick navy blue nav bar at the top. http://budurl.com/u24k/d This is the way I'd like it to be. I copied and pasted the code to create the portfolio pages http://budurl.com/7fpy/dbut the navbar appears skinnier ... making a space appear when the "portfolio" pulldown menu is engaged. I'm probably missing something completely obvious, right? Thanks so much for your help! Hi, this is appleguy.......6142! I was wondering how to make a text box display something somewhere else for example (This does not work)---- ------------------------------------------------------------------ [page1.html] (Pretend this is a text box)>>> [Text Text Text...] [page2.html] -This is the text displayed in the text box->>>Text Text Text... HOW DO I DO THAT PLEASE HELP!! I need to have this text in html. I need only the text, no table. My problem was, that when i changed the fontsize, a new paragraph was created. But i want it on one line. Thanks for your help. I want to create a form with a text box that has a specific answer. If the correct answer is typed in, the submit button redirects to one page. If the wrong answer is typed, the form redirects to another page. Is there any way to do this? I would like to have some text and/or image appear on a page. And at a date/time have it disappear/expire. Is this possible? Is it html or a script? Any direction would help THANKS! Dave read title I want to make a text box that looks like so: http://benjaminpotter.org/prototype.jpg and I need it to expand no matter how much text I place in there... I have got these 3 images: http://benjaminpotter.org/top.png http://benjaminpotter.org/middle.png http://benjaminpotter.org/bottom.png I need some way of making the middle one repeat itself down the x axis, so that the box can hold infinite text. Can anyone help me here? What code do I need to place some text in some type of table or container? thanks I just need a basic code for this. For what I presume is basic anyway. On MySpace, I'll insert links, and MySpace will automatically make it a hyperlink, but won't allow you to visit certain links that you click on. How do you prevent it from being a link and so that it's just text? I thought <nohtml> worked, but apparently it doesn't exist. Would help me out loads, thanks, Sam/.

This is a perfect example: http://www.stpatrick.org/ Thanks a lot! I am trying to move my title text further to the right. However, when I do (by adding more  , the title breaks into another line instead of moving further to the right. I have tried manipulating the margin px, but it isnt changing. I am not familiar with manipulating floating text. How do I accomplish this? Here is my current code: <td align="center" valign="top"><table width="655" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <div style="background:url(/offices.jpg);margin:0;"><br/><br/><span style="float:right;margin:0px 150px 198px 0px;"><font type="Arial Narrow" size="5"><b> &nbs p; &n bsp; <font color="#4E4848">My title</font></b></font> </span> I'm using a jquery plugin that creates a grid view using a table.
