In the admin screen for each form there's a link to the CSS file - if you edit that it will only change the attributes for that particular form. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/length-of-field#post-2669 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:09:23 +0000 Regardt 2669@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I have to 2 different forms, both of them has the correct css setting by which the fields width is the same.
