I have created three forms in mycontactform. One form is set to 400 pixels width. One is set to 50 percent width. They appear to be about the same width. A third form I have tried tirelessly to change the width. No matter what I put in for the form width, it does not change a thing. I'm stumped and frustrated. Please advise.

Please make sure that the length of the individual question inputs are sufficiently small enough to fit within the specified width. If they are too long, they will stretch out the form and nullify the setting that controls the form width.

The forms are all similar and have long questions, this is true. But the summer registration form also has long questions but just makes more lines with less width and the fall registration form makes less lines, but wider. If it works for the summer form, why would it not work for the fall form? As for the question input lengths, do the answer choices apply to this too? Do I need to shorten the answers too? I don't understand why the forms are very similar, but look very different when the settings are the same and the questions similar lengths. Please advise. Thank you.

The problem is most likely with the actual input boxes, not the text for the question. If you post a link to the forms, I can confirm this.
