OK, skip the line restriction part, scrolling is OK if auto.

Now I'm gapping on how to dynamically set the te field width/height.

te_rs.txt.._width = 400;
te_rs.txt.clip()._width = 400;

?

You want the returns? But to restrict lineCount? From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett

It won't take returns?

Any way to set a multiline te field to a specific height without setting scrolling =1?

Idea is to give the user a set area  (think a ruled page) to enter into.
No scrollbars and no running past the bottom.

Tried a few variations with
longtextentry._height = 200;

but as soon as I turn scrolling off, the tf just keeps expanding downwards, and if I turn scrolling on, well, the darn thing scrolls.
