Default Forms / Tables

Put the form field in a table cell of fixed height and width. It won't stop
the user entering too much information, but the extra information will
disappear off screen and give the user some indication that he has entered
too much.

I have the same problem in tables I've fixed the size of the table to
restrict the user entering to much info, but if you use return it
messes it up!

Thanks
