Hello All,

I'm wondering if anyone using Spiderweb knows how to increase the
default size of the input text box?

The default format is:
SpiderForm1.AddText('Enter Subscriber Name: ');
SpiderForm1.AddInput(itText, 'subname', '');

The box is about 30 characters across.

I want to add a bit more text (say about 100 characters), and have the
box sized.

I've tried the HTML approach of :
SpiderForm1.AddInput(itText, 'subname', 'Size = "100" ');

But that doesn't work - it just enters text in the textbox.

Kind regards

Hello,

After posting this direct to Motaz, he kindly responded by the
following:
SpiderForm1.AddInput(itText, 'State', '', 'size=100');

The extra parameter option allows extra functionality.

I also offer the following that also works:
    Response.Add('<form name= "input" method="post">');
    Response.Add('Input Query: <input type="Text" name="State"
size="150">');
    Response.Add('<input type="submit" value="Submit" /><br
/></form>');

This mixes straight HTML within the Freespider code.

Thanks Motaz
