FP 2003 Confirmation Page Fields

[ZrustE]

How do you format the confirmation page form fields. Fields such as name,
email, etc. look fine, but the comments field is one long line.

How do I get the information to break? I've tried tables and a table within
a table. Nothing seems to work.

Surely there's a way to accept comments that do not display as one big long
line. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

When you insert a confirmation field, FrontPage normally wraps it a
paragraph:

<p><!--webbot bot="ConfirmationField" S-Field="textbox1" --></p>

In code (or split view) change the <p> to <pre> and </p> to </pre>

This will partially solve the problem for those users who press the enter
key while filling in the text area because the text will wrap whenever the
enter key was pressed, but all other text between the line breaks will be
one long line of text.

Leaving the <p> and </p> will have the opposite effect - the text will wrap
to fit the page, but the line breaks (enter key presses) will be treated as
spaces.

It's an "either/or" situation - the choice is yours.
