HEIGHT attribute

The HEIGHT attribute defines an explicit height for a form element.

Syntax

HEIGHT = integer [CHARACTERS|LINES|POINTS|PIXELS]
  1. integer defines the height of the element.

Usage

By default, the size of an element is defined in characters and automatically computed by the form compiler according to the size of the form element in the layout.

For items like images, the default height is defined by the number of lines of the form item tag of the in the layout, as a vertical character height. You can overwrite this default by specifying the HEIGHT attribute. You typically give a number of pixels.

For tables, the default height is defined by the number of lines used in the table layout. You can overwrite this default by specifying the HEIGHT attribute.

If you don't specify any unit, the size unit defaults to CHARACTERS, which defines the number of grid cells.
