Making a text box for input in CDML

Featured Replies

Hi, you guys are great. I got help with my last problem, so here is another. I need a text box, for a field on a new record page. I tried examples from my HTML book, but cant make any work. I want 10 rows of 50 chatacters. What do i have to do to this line, to make that possible?

<P><INPUT TYPE=text NAME=ad VALUE="" SIZE=500></P>

Thanks in advance, for all your help, Wayne

i would try like this:

<textarea name="text" rows="10" cols="50">[fmp-field:name_of_your_textbox]</textarea>

have a nice day

Hi, the style for a new record field is:

<P><TEXTAREA NAME="field name here" ROWS=6 COLS=30 WRAP=virtual></TEXTAREA></P>

.......................and for an edit field where you want date already entered to display when the page loads:

<P><TEXTAREA NAME="field name here" ROWS=6 COLS=30 WRAP=virtual>[FMP-Field: field name here]</TEXTAREA></P>

regards, jeff
