How do I change textarea rows/cols?
Hi,

where do I change the rows and cols for the textarea for adding/editing the description of an entry?
I had a look at the source code and it's set to <textarea rows="4" cols="30" ..., which is set the values by variables like <%editor_rows%>. Where can I change these values to have a bigger textfield?

Thanks,
Sven

Hi there,

In your admin main menu do this:
click Database

then in the left bar:
choose Links
choose Properties
press Go

from the list that appears, go to the field you're interested in adjusting and click it.

In the form that appears scroll down to "Form Size" and adjust the default value of 30 to:
50,10 or whatever numbers you want. The first number is columns, the second represents rows.

make sure that the value for "Form Type" equals TEXTAREA

At the bottom press "Update Table Links"

hope that helps.

peace.
