Re: [drupal-support] A how-to question on text areas.

Hi,

The actual function is form_textarea() which is in the includes directory. but where the sizes are pasted is all over. just find the form_textarea() and there are 2 parameters that specify the width and depth.

check drupaldocs.org for more information.

Thanks Gordon, that worked fine.

For future reference where are the sizes actually set (without reading a LOT of code)? I've found functions but nowhere that seems to call that function with actual numbers.

Perhaps it's all in a set of variables somewhere. I'll keep looking just so I know!

Thanks again! Skip

    The easiest method that have found to change this is to use
    css.

    try something like

    #edit-body {
      width: 100%;
      height: 20em;
    }

    this should allow you to change the textarea to what you
    want. 

    Gordon.
