    Hi,

    Can anyone tell me how I can increase the height of the text fields on the form.
    I tried increasing the height of the cells on the table but the field only shows 1 line of text.

    thanks in advance, and thanks for the form generator. good work!

      Simple HTML formatting.  Try adding some of these fields (starting with the word "style") in your form1.html file for the boxes you want to change.

      <input type=text name='LastName' size=40 style="height: 35; vertical-align:bottom; font-size:14pt" >

      Thanks alot, that fixed it.

      Only problem now is that press enter to make a new line actually submits the form. Is there a way around this?

        I think you have created a form with the wrong type of text box.  This text box receives one line.  Pressing enter activates the submit button. 

        Try using the "text area" form generator selection option.  Pay attention to the Field size 1 and 2 option instructions.
