Text Size In "fill-in" Form Blanks How do you change the size of the text in the fill in form entry boxes

Recommended Posts

Thanks for all the help on my previous question about adding an address to a "Submit" button. I've also been able to add a "print page" button through the help from group members. I now have another question.I've created a form using the Input commands that ask for name, address, state, etc. My computer is set to use 12 point text on a 800 x 600 screen resolution. When I hit the print screen button, everything is printed out fine, but I would like the information that people will be entering into the various boxes to be of a larger or bolder style. The whole reason for the print screen with filled in blanks is to make it easier for the Registrar of an upcoming meeting to receive registration forms that are easy to read and don't have terrible hand writing on them.Is it possible to change the size of the requested information with the addition of HTML coding? If so, can any of you point me in the right direction.Thanks in advance for any help.Tom T.

Assuming that you have the following html code:

<div id="input5">	<label for="comments">Comments:</label>	<textarea id="comments" rows="5" cols="30"></textarea>  </div>
and the following CSS will increase the font-size:
#comment {font-size: 1.5em; } // or pixel size?

We would need to see the actual form code you have, prefer a link to the page, but the html and css code will work.
Using the sample above, notice the id="comments" for the textarea id? that is how I have targetted the CSS to find the correct spot to increase the size.

Folks,After posting my question about changing the size of the text that is added to the Input lines, I did some Google.com searching and came up with the following entries to add to my Styles listings. They seem to work great.<style>input {font-size:10pt}input {font-weight: 600}input {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif}</style>Thanks for all the comments and help.Tom T.
