Element height & width - Pixels vs...

Just started working with the the new form builder and so far, I'm not too thrilled since I have 2 problems easily solved in the old version. First, can I change my element width using pixels versus the predetermined percentages provided? Also, on the drop-down element, the height is much smaller than my other text element heights making it look extremely unaligned. How do I change the height of this element? There's not even the percentages offered.

Using percentages is better. The reason is because when you resize your browser, the form automatically scales to the browser size. If you use fixed pixels, the form would then break outside the page dimensions. As to the other comment, that is hard-coded into the software and cannot be changed. You could however manually customize that in the markup.

I have been using the form version 1.1 Build 3173 for many years.
Suddenly I have found that the forms on three of my sites do not work and return the message "Unable to Send Mail" Could you say what may be the reason for this sudden problem with all the forms?

Did your host make some changes to the server or to your account? Can you provide a link to one of the forms?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Time to update George. You are using a very old version. Upgrade to version 2.4 and see if that helps.
