Textbox and Text Area Controls
Textbox controls and Text Area controls are both fields that
let the user enter text in the published form. When you enter information in
the textbox control, the text automatically fits the textbox. When you enter
information in the text area control, the text continues on the same line.
Note: When a user enters
numbers in a textbox or text area control, this information is interpreted as
text and not as numbers. Use the
Numberbox control instead if you need numerical information
to be interpreted as numbers.
If you want some text to display in the textbox or text area control by default, enter that text n the Text in the Field box on the Properties tab.
You can make the control Read Only and make the control appear grayed out by setting the Read Only option to Yes.
If the control does not already have a label, you can add a label to the control by selecting or .
You can edit the appearance of the control from the Styles tab and you can add Actions involving the control from the Actions tab.
