I have installed the demo and added the mods: shortlongUF and the date translator. After that I used the JPDeni's configurator and made the db. It worked .

Then I saw that a field (Presentation) was a textfield instead of a Textarea. I have tried to change it, but...I must obviesly do something wrong.

Is there anyone who can help me?

The db resides at http://www.colombiaklubben.no

and txt files can be found at

I found out what to do

In the default.cfg in stead of:

'Presentation' => [62, 'alpha', 5x40, 999, 0, '', ''],

It should be:

'Presentation' => [62, 'alpha', 5x40, 999, 0, '', ''],

It seems like I just did a part of the job. The area that should be i textarea in the form is still a textfield. Anyone who knows what I should do?

Jan Peter

In your html.pl file sub html_record_form you would also need to change the field value to:

<TEXTAREA NAME="Presentation" ROWS="5" COLS="40" WRAP="VIRTUAL" MAXLENGTH="999">$rec{'Presentation'}</TEXTAREA>

That should do it.
