Dear all,

I am facing a challenge with data elements of type *"long text"* in *custom
forms in *Tracker Capture.

Data element with data type "Long text" is usually rendered as* text area i*n
data entry when using the default data entry form. However, the same data
element is rendered as an input box (*not text area*) in *custom forms*
making it impossible to see parts of your text as you are typing.

I have tried to work around this by using HTML style tag to stretch the
input box so it fills the entire cell area but it still doesn't make it a *text
area *actually.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ese
