How do I change the size of the "Other" field that can be added to Radio Buttons and Checkboxes? I need it to display larger (maybe even multiple lines) for the submitter to enter text. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Bill,

Get the ID number of the field, in my case it's Field31, and make it look like this in the CSS section:

#Field31_other_value {width: 600px; height: 300px;}

Obviously, you can play around with the width and height, but this is what the above would look like:

Hi Mr. Rick,

Thanks so much for your quick response. Works like a charm! I'm guessing this will work the same for checkboxes as well??

Thanks again,

Bill

You're welcome, Bill, glad to help! And yes, it works with exactly the same syntax for a checkbox field.

You could use a hidden multiline field that shows when "Yes" is selected using the Field Rules.

Hey Travis,

That is what I was going to resort to because I couldn't figure out the CSS to change that one field. I greatly appreciate your input.
