ok ... so I'm using the new form program, which I like, but because I cannot space my elements close together my form is over 2000 in length. Is 2000 a measurement in pixels? Not sure and it does not really matter ... my problem is that when I add the html for my form into visual site designer, the maximum length it is accepting is 2000. My form is around 2800 so when I adjust the size of my html object, it just keeps going back to 2000. Also designers, just as an aside until I started using the new form program I was using the old one and I really liked how my form was able to transition in. This is not in the right spot, but I'm not going to create a thread just for it.

Okay any help on the max of 2000 would greatly be appreciated because I'm just going to keep at it til I figure it out .. that is if is even possible ... arghhhhhhhhhhhh

I haven't even started monkeying around with the new form builder but an Iframe would work for your problem.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

In the new HTML version there is no maximum height. There is actually not even a setting for height as that is automatically determined by the number of fields you add. You can however control the width.

There will be no "transitions" in the HTML Version as that is something you find in Flash. You are now working with HTML. One of the big pluses HTML has over the Flash version is the ability to work on the iPhone/iPad and other mobile devices.

You are right ... my form software was working fine and everything was showing up in the preview. My problem was when I was inserting my form into visual site designer. My SUBMIT button kept getting cut off along with other material near the bottom of my survey.

My problem is fixed now, but I had to change the html coding that I copied and pasted from my form software. I went in and adjusted the height after pasting it into the box on VSD and presto everything is now showing up ... but should I have to do that?

If you changed it and it fixed the problem then you needed to do that.;)

I think she was referring to the maximum height of a page in VSD...
