Field with textarea only 1 line high

Sorry for mixing german and english in this blog....

I found this very helpful:

Business case:
Input field with character counter needed - but one line high only:
(the character counter is only available in field type: textarea - not: text-field)

Tom W. found out the following :

it seems to me that the css attribute min-height overwrites the textarea-attribute rows (the value you enter in the property for the item).

By resetting the css the textareas height works like you would expect, e.g.

define in page properties -> css -> inline

textarea.textarea { min-height: 0px !important; }

Thanks Tom W. !

Good luck!

BTW: I use APEX 5.1
