How to change the text input box was created by adridg
I have a Long free text question and I want to have the text input box shorter than it has been showed.
But it is not been possible.
This what´ve done:
number of characters = 300
number of rows = 5
text_input_width = 50
My LS is Versão 2.06+ Build 151018
Thankss

That should work, perhaps your template is overriding the textarea attributes. Can you activate a test survey and give us a link?

Hi,

I am new to the league. I have been assigned Lime survey quite recently and I have hit a snag while validating text questions.
I want my text questions to accept ONLY textual response . Right now if I enter 123 in "Name of respondent" field it gets accepted. I want it to take text only.
Please help me on this. I'm afraid if the question sounds childish.
I have done my desk research already.
This is my first ever post to any forum, please help.

Cheers!

OK! Now I ve hit another snag. I an using ([A-Z]{1}[a-z]*) to validate my text fields. Respondents can now escape validation by entering A12345. Ideally validation should not allow numerical input AT ALL.

Please help!

tpartner, I guess you are right.
This is something I also want to change and I don´t know how.
I saw in templates that there are 5 possible sizes: Mobile, 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and Complete.
But how I change this?
Thanks
I added a file with the print screen

@adridg, that document doesn't help me, can you activate a test survey so we can see the source and any styles that may be affecting it?

@Nazysh, that is totally off-topic. Please start a new topic.

here a link to the active survey
pesqinst.trtsp.jus.br/limesurvey/index.php/942986?lang=pt-BR

what a I want to do is:
1) I have a Long free text question and I want to have the text input box shorter than it has been showed. (this is the last question)
2) I saw in templates that there are 5 possible sizes: Mobile, 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and Complete.
But how I change this?
3) and if you could help me in one more thing: in the multiple choice question I have an "other option". In this I can not put the "tick" sinal in the check box.
Thank you!!
p.s.: survey is in portuguese, but as it is a very simple one I gues you can navigate on it
