Field length is too long for field type

[Andrew Conohan]

Hi

I am trying to design a submit form for my website but a few of the common fields user need to fill out are way too long for what they are.

For example the postal code field is a huge box on the form which should only take up space for 5-6 alpha numeric characters.

Same goes for address field it only has the option to give it an 'text field' or text area ( a might be wrong on that term) but I think you understand.

I need to be able to shorten the lengths of some fields on my form just to make enough space for certain values..

Thanks
