You can use BBCode in that field to format the output.
There is some info right below the box. As for the questions & answers, there are drop downs right above the box, which will insert them for you.

The insert of my questions and answers doesn't work. If I click and drag them all I get is 'javascript://'.

I think the solution is probably there, maybe I'm missing something.

Thanks

you might have a javascript problem with your browser. you can do this though

The Question Name = {qn_xx}
Question Answer = {qo_xx}
where xx is the Question Number
So to get what you posted above you would something like this in the Custom Box

PHP Code:

[b]{qn_1}[/b]: {qo_1}
[b]{qn_2}[/b]: {qo_2}
[b]{qn_3}[/b]: {qo_3}

That worked prefectly!

Another question:

I want to increase the size of the answer box, I want to make it larger in both width and height. If I change the size it just makes the field longer. I'd like it to be about 5 inches square.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks in advance,

Use a Multi-Line Text Field for the question, and just edit the sizes for:
Textarea Rows:
Textarea Columns:

Rows is the height and Columns is the length of the box displayed on the form.

That did the trick.

For some reason when several of the functions aren't working. It seems the javascripts aren't working. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

not really, maybe you have a javascript on your forums which is conflicting? It works fine on my sites.

[lickalotapus]

Thanks, now I just need to figure out where the conflicts are

You've been very helpful and I appreciate it!

[lickalotapus]

Never figured out the conflicts but I did find a work around.

How can I change the navbar name? Right now it's called 'forms'

Thanks in advance,

Thanks in advance,

ACP -> Languages & Phrases -> Phrase Manager -> look for 'downloads2', click edit, and re-name it.

I am using the this for my thread title which works fine:

{q_1} {q_3} {q_2} - Application

But it doesnt work for the poll question, all I actually see is this {q_1} {q_3} {q_2} - Application rather than the actually correct information.

Is this a bug?
