    Browser Enabled Form - Text - Display - Multi Line

    I have many text boxes that are set to 'auto' height and Multi Line checked.  Filling out the form online it does wrap to another line.  However, when the user completes my survey, it emails a copy to multiple people depending upon what/how questions were answered.  The email copy only shows the first line of the text box.  Why doesn't the text box adjust its height since it set to 'auto' and display all the text?  Is there a way around this problem.  Most of the people receiving the email do not have access to the SharePoint site from which the form is generated.

    Because the auto setting is only relevant to the form functionality itself, so you  have to be in the form to realize its functionality.  If you are using the "submit to email" submit function, then it just simply emails a snapshot of what it thinks it sees and does not follow the formatting of the form settings itself very well.  I would suggest making an email-firendly view that users don't see but that has fields set to auto-height and auto-width to accommodate larger sets of text.  You can't realy make it dynamic in this case, which is unfortunate.
