Fixing the height of a text area

Hi, I have searched the forums for an answer to this with no success.
How do I set a text area to stay fixed at a height of 5 rows and not compress down to 1 row when the form first loads?
(I have set rows to 5 in the text area setup).
Thanks in advance,
JR

It's not compressing for me, do you have the latest version installed?

Hi, yes I only downloaded the component 2 days ago and loaded it.
The form can be viewed at https://budgetyachtcharters.com/index.php/contact-us/charter-enquiry-form
It's the first field on the form.

Use a custom CSS block. Your template's CSS is setting the textarea height to 40px.

Aaaah thanks for that.
Would it be too much to ask for the suggested CSS code? I tried to work it out with the code inspector but CSS is not my strength.

textarea { height: 999px; }

Well done I will give it a try. Thanks for your help
JR :-)
