    Hi,

    I´m running into a problem with setting the maxlength of an input field (text). I have set it to 3, as is the size, but for some reason the field is much larger when rendered in a browser. Check http://www.kwestievan.nu/index.php?id=22 to see what I mean. (Yeah I know, it looks like shit, I have to adjust the divs according to the form. )

    Anyone an idea what may cause this ?

    cheers,

      Yup. Maxlength has nothing to do with the length of the box, only the number of characters going into it.

      This is the bit of CSS code that’s making them a particular size:

      input {
width:200px;
}
