I am using the textarea form component on my page and I am wondering how can I strech it out and make it bigger.

Its very small when you bring it in in DW, but I can really make it bigger.

select it then look at the bottom of DW and in the property inspector adjust the size. I think they call it character width and number of lines or something like that.
