Author HTML textarea problem
The Law

2004-08-02, 11:14 pm

Hi there,

I am not very new to html, but haven't used text areas very much.

I have a form to collect support request from visitors to a client's Web site.
When I tab from field to field and get to the text area at the bottom of the
form, the insertion point has been shifted down a few lines by all my tabs.
I've never seen that happen before and was wondering if there is something I'm
not doing in the code.

I am using the <CFFORM> tag for the form if that makes a difference.

Here is the page on the server:
http://www.purexango.net/site/dis/s...contactForm.cfm
Here is the form's code:

<cfform action="contactAction.cfm" method="post">
<cfinput name="fName"
type="text"
value=""
size="50"
maxlength="50"
required="yes"
message="Please enter a First Name"
class="formField">

<cfinput name="lName"
type="text"
value=""
size="50"
maxlength="50"
required="yes"
message="Please enter a Last Name"
class="formField">

<cfinput name="email"
type="text"
value=""
size="50"
maxlength="50"
required="no"
class="formField">

<cfinput name="country"
type="text"
value=""
size="50"
maxlength="50"
required="no"
class="formField">

<cfinput name="phoneNumber"
type="text"
value=""
size="50"
maxlength="50"
required="yes"
message="Please enter a phone number"
class="formField">

<cfinput name="issueType"
type="text"
value=""
size="50"
maxlength="50"
required="no"
class="formField">

<textarea name="issueDescription"
cols="39"
rows="10"
wrap="soft"
value=""
class="formField">
</textarea>

<input name="submit"
type="submit"
value="Submit">

</cfform>

A solution would be great as this is a project for a client. Thank you very
much in advance.
