Height of text area in a form not showing properly on landing page

Hello,

 

I have a text area field in a form (10 visible lines), but it doesn't show the height properly on a landing page. Can someone help me on this? Thx!!!

Re: Height of text area in a form not showing properly on landing page

Because this rule overrides the height of the textarea:

#section1Form .mktoForm input[type="text"], #section1Form .mktoForm input[type="url"], #section1Form .mktoForm input[type="email"], #section1Form .mktoForm input[type="tel"], #section1Form .mktoForm input[type="number"], #section1Form .mktoForm input[type="date"], #section1Form .mktoForm textarea.mktoField, #section1Form .mktoForm select.mktoField {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #D9D9D9 !important;
    border-radius: 0px;
    color: #414141 !important;
    font-family: 'Gotham',sans-serif !important;
    font-size: 16px !important;
    height: 31px !important;
    padding: 0 !important;
    width: 100% !important;
    border-top: 0 !important;
    border-left: 0 !important;
    border-right: 0 !important;
    line-height: 19px;
    background-color: transparent !important;
}

 

And so does this one:

.mktoForm textarea.mktoField {
    height: 25px !important;
}

 

You’ve gotta get used to browser Dev Tools (F12, Inspect, etc.) and constantly refactoring+simplifying your CSS. You don’t to keep adding more and more!importants and ending up with a hard-to-manage mess.

Please link to your LP so we can inspect the conflicting CSS. Can’t tell from a screenshot!
