basic question that Im struggling with, how do I get a deeper textbox in php. I have a string that is input into a database of length 225, but obviously I dont want a text box of the same length as it looks stupid! How do deepen the text box entry on the form?

Hrm, I think you've a lot to learn about internets 
Text boxes can contain data of any* length, and they don't have to be physically that wide to display long content either. An <input type="text" name="blah" value="A really long string goes in here maybe even 225 characters"> is still only going to be about 100px wide when it gets painted.
I *think* that's what you were asking
*within reason!

I realise that a text box doesn't have to be physically as wide as the field length but you didnt answer my question. How do I make the input multilined, such as the one im typing into this second? Otherwise it looks appalling.
