    • Let me guess, are you using IE???

      check your site with another browser like firefox, chrome, etc.

      I believe your problem is related with the compatibility mode from Internet Explorer (IE)?

      check this thread from microsoft

    • Hi there,

      I am guessing you are using Joomla 1.7? As the code for your template does not include _j15 at the end.

      In Joomla 1.7 it is almost impossible to style the contact form due to the way it is constructed. I always use RSForms Pro to create my contact forms for J1.7

      If you want to persevere then you could try and find the appropriate file in the com_contact component and change the 3 input box sizes, although you won't get an identical match because the inputs are different. With textarea set to 50 cols you need to set textbox to 67

      Hope this helps 8)

    • Yes its 1.7, Thanks I found the file its the contact.xml under the /com_contact/models/forms

      I set the text area to 39 columns and it align ok with the rest of the fields.

      Thanks for the pointer.
