I am using a few extra field that use the textarea type with the HTML editor. I've noticed that if I type too much for one line, the line wraps and the next line starts underneath the extra fields title as opposed to the indented location of where it started and it looks kind of funny. Can anyone tell me how to get the text to wrap so that the first letter of all the lines of text line up under that initial line of text?

In the template, wrap the field results in its own DIV tag. That should prevent wrapping under the field name.

I'm not much of a developer/programmer, are you referring to something in the template.css file or the .php file?

he is referering to the php file which may be an override

Sounds a little out of my league as I don't know PHP. If it is just a matter of putting a <div> around some code though, if I know what to look for I could probably handle it. I'd have to know which PHP file... the template.php or k2.php and what code to look for to put in the <div>.

Unless there is an easier way to do it somewhere in the CSS maybe?

i have demo running see your email

this may not be the best way to do it but it will work.
Create an override (SEE DOCUMENTATION)
edit item.php
in 2.5 goto line 259
wrap the span containing extra field value with
<div style="text-align: left;margin-left:200px;word-wrap: break-word;">
and put </div> at the end of the same line

this will make a text area and a text field both wrap to the same spot

Excellent, it worked. Thank you so much for your help, I appreciate it!
