How to increase the width of a long text field in a Visualforce page?
I need to widen a long text inputField on a Visualforce page. Following is the current apex code:
<apex:pageBlockSection title="Comments (Internal Use Only)" columns="1">
<apex:PageBlockSectionItem >
<apex:outputLabel value="Additional Comments:" for="RFP_Request__c_Additional_Comments__c"/>
<apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Request__c.Additional_Comments__c}" id="RFP_Request__c_Additional_Comments__c"/>
</apex:PageBlockSectionItem>
What is the code to make the inputField wider?
<apex:pageBlockSection title="Comments (Internal Use Only)" columns="1">
<apex:PageBlockSectionItem >
<apex:outputLabel value="Additional Comments:" for="RFP_Request__c_Additional_Comments__c"/>
<apex:inputField value="{!RFP_Request__c.Additional_Comments__c}" id="RFP_Request__c_Additional_Comments__c"/>
</apex:PageBlockSectionItem>
What is the code to make the inputField wider?

For apex:PageBlockSectionItem you have to give styclass - labelstyleclass and datastyleclass. You can give width in that class.

Thanks for the recommendations. I was able to use the following apex code to widen the long text area fields display on my Visualforce pages:
textarea {
width: 95%;
}
It seems to be working so far.
