Resizing the, “Leave a Reply” Comment Box?

  • Hello all,

    I’m having a bit of an issue tracking down where I adjust the size of the comment box when you go to leave a reply on my website. I know if I resize this it will fit into my template and quit blowing out my table. I’ve tried altering it in the CSS, but it didn’t take.

    Lil help…

  • Whats the link to your site?

    You might want to try changing the cols attribute to the textarea inside the comments.php file in your theme ..

    Sorry for the delay. This post slipped past me, but I think this should solve my problem. I’ll have to give it a dance when I get home. I just couldn’t find where to alter the comment area.

    My website is listed below. Thanks for the response..

    That didn’t seem to effect the size of the comment box at all. It looks fine in dreamweaver, but when I upload it to my site it’s the same. Is this set somewhere in the css???

    textarea {
    font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica;
    font-size: 1.1em;
    border: 1px solid #BFBFBF;
    color: #949494;
    padding: 2px 5px 1px 5px;
    width: 40px; <———-
    }

    Does altering the indicated line help at all ?
    That should make a very skinny box…
