Setting the Sizes of Page Components

Regions

To set the height and width of a region to a specified width, set the following attributes in the region.  Use this to set all regions to the same width if desired:

• Region Header

< table height="400" width="400"><tr><td>

• Region Footer

</td></tr></table>

Select Lists

To set the width of a select list, enter the following <style> tag code.  The caution is that if the text goes beyond the width it will not be visible to the user.  For HTML Form Element Attributes:

style="width:100;"

Tabular Form Field

There is no way to set a maximum length of text to allow for a tabular form column by using the available properties in HTML DB.  To set the maximum length of the text that can be entered into a tabular form column, edit the column attributes for the tabular form column.  Then make the following changes.

• Tabular Form Element à Element Attributes

onFocus="javascript:this.maxLength=20;"

To force UPPERCASE  characters only on a tabular form column, edit the column attributes for the tabular form column.  Then make the following changes:

• Tabular Form Element à Element Attributes

style="text-transform:uppercase;"

To influence the width of a tabular form column set the following:

• Tabular Form Element -> Element Attributes

style="width:200;"
