Bigger Box Campaign

Am I the only one to get frustrated when I have to write a complete letter in a text area that's 3 rows and 20 columns - a nice looking form but totally impractical to use when making an enquiry - case in point this morning - about a non-standard travel requirement?

Whenever I'm designing a form I ask myself "what will people typically want to put in here?" and "what will the extreme case be?" ... and I try to cater, without exception, for the typical case. The extreme case will be given consideration and, screen real estate allowing, will have a box that's large enough for at least 20 lines of 40 characters to be seen - a reasonable window on his / her letter.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
