I'm bumping up against this on a form as well, and puzzled why using a custom/clean css sheet loaded last in the page header for precedence, with unique divs/classes aren't working on the textareas... not for size, background-color, text color, nothing. I can target the row, the parent divs, e

Don't know if this applies in your situation, but one problem I've encountered is I always assumed that simply adding a response.files. append (page.css) to the top of a view before extending the default layout.html template would put the page.css file last in the hierarchy. If you look at the c

Lol, yeah I had problems too and ended up hard-coding my css link into the layout right before the head closed. But something else is going on with those inputs to prevent styling them... On Aug 3, 2013 4:51 AM, "Jim Gregory" wrote: > Don't know if this applies in your situation, but one problem

Is this in the basic scaffolding app, or are you using custom CSS/JS? If that latter, it's hard to say without seeing any code. In the scaffolding app, the textarea width is set in bootstrap-responsive.min.css and should be overrideable. Anthony On Saturday, August 3, 2013 12:59:31 AM UTC-4, d

Yes basic scaffolding, it's been left intact. Agreed it *should* be overrideable. I tested on another page where I was not using jquery and same, could not change the color of a textarea or text input box. After much experimentation (and vaguely remembered reading somewhere but couldn't tell

Actually, it is also set in the web2py_bootstrap.css line 105, which is interesting, but not nearly as interesting as the comment in the css file! ;) /* because web2py handles this via js */ textarea { width:90%} soo, who knows the javascript well enough to say what is happening here, and

I think that the comment is wrong. Actually, the textarea width is not handled by web2py via js. Modern browsers, except IE, have a textarea resizable and so its width is calculated by browser itself. In this case in order to set a fixed width on all textareas you should set in your custom css

Can you use the browser developer tools to inspect the element and see which CSS rule is active and where it comes from? Also, try disabling Javascript and see if that affects the display. If all else fails, pack a basic app that demonstrates the problem and attach it here. Anthony On Sunday,

This has now been changed: https://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/detail?r=fb06ea622be62acbcd9218457d3b3863b93787d7. Custom CSS and JS files are now included *after* the standard scaffolding files, so you can easily override default CSS rules. Anthony On Saturday, August 3, 2013 4:51:01 AM U
