[SOLVED] [#3046] Text Area Width

Hi

Joomla 1.7, CB 1.7.1

I have seen a couple of posts relating to this issue but none seems to have a solution for me.

I have added a text area field to allow members to write a profile. I would like the text to extend the full width of the content box however even though I set 'display field title' to 'no' the text only stretches approx 70%. Looking at the css this is due to the following;

form.cb_form .cb_form_line .cb_field , .cb_tab_content .cb_form_line .cb_field
{
display: block;
float: left;
width: 70%;
font-weight:normal;
vertical-align: top;
}

If I try to change this to width 100% then all fields (with title go to 2 lines)which is not what I want...any suggestions on how I might get the text to stretch across the full width for the text area field. Please see the attached screenshots.




Field name: cb_aboutme

Many thanks

The field needs to be set to display on 2 lines and that should allow it to expand the full width. Please ensure you're using CB 1.7.1 as using 2 line display on DIV was bugged in previous releases.

Hi Krileon

Unfortunately this doesn't work. I have set to display on 2 lines and using cb 1.7.1 but you can see from the attached screenshots the text still does not go across the full width.

Was able to confirm your issue and is a minor CSS problem. I've created the below bug ticket for further investigation.

Have investigated further and this is already fixed in CB 1.7.1. What CB template are you using? Please switch to default CB template and confirm if issue persists. If so please install CB 1.7.1 ontop of it self and re-test. If still persisting please PM a link to a user profile where issue is present so may review the CSS.
