Hi, I use Fireboard with JA Xenia and have a problem, the textbox where you write your message is too small. This has to do with the template since it wont give it enough room or how I should put it.

If enyone could help me with this I would be very grateful, thanks 😀

have you a live url, it would seem you need to find the offending code ( text box) and just adjust the width.

Without a site to view I can’t find it for you but if you use Firefox and have added “Firebug” addon you can highlight the text box on your site with cursor and right click from pop up menu select inspect element it will show you what code that element uses. From there you will be able to correct the problem

mikebru;19878help :confused:

In firebug highlight the text area panel, use inspect element highlight the line, up the top of the display ( firebug) the first instance of the the results are displayed next to ‘inspect area’ that tells ya what class etc is attached to the highlighted element – in the far right panel look at the box model it shows you the size of the box

I do not have fireboard so do not have the fb css files to look at but this is the css class that controls the box size this is the class you look for in the fireboard css file and alter and save overwriting the original. Back up the original file before editing!

<textarea id=”message” name=”message” class=”fb_txtarea“/>
