Hi jj,

In mboard.php find this code:

Code: Select all

cols=50 rows=9
should be located TWICE in the mbaord.php. Then just increase number of cols and rows (for example to cols=60 rows=13).

I am assuming if l decrease the rol and column values the text will wrap onto a new line , is that right?

The box should be SHORTER if you decreased to 30 cols. If it's too high try decreasing rows.

Also have you decreased cols TWICE within the code?
