text field problem
I have a text field which is supposed to get the area code of the telephone number of the users. It's something like this:

<input NAME="areacode" TYPE="TEXT" SIZE="3" MAXLENGTH="3" >

when it shows up on browser, it seems the text field is bigger than 3, even if I set it as maxlength="3".

Can anybody here tell me how to format it to be exactly 3 without extra space on the browsers?

Thanks

Just set SIZE="1" for a tighter fit.
Code:
<input NAME="areacode" TYPE="TEXT" SIZE="1" MAXLENGTH="3">

  • Internet Explorer(version 6): Perfect Fit
  • Netscape(version 7.1): Perfect Fit
  • Firefox(version 0.92): Perfect Fit
  • Opera(version 7.1): No Fit: Only shows 1 number
  • Mozilla(version 1.6): Perfect Fit
