Help with text box height

Expand Post »

I am using css to change the form options on my site, this is my code,

/* Form elements */
input.first, textarea.first, select.first {
border : 1px solid Black;
background-color : #CCCCCC;
color : #0E1930;
font-size : 12px;
font-family : Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight : bold;
}

But my problem is that the text box created when i use

HTML and CSS Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
 <INPUT class="first" TYPE=text name=q size=30 maxlength=255 value="">
 <INPUT class="first" TYPE=text name=q size=30 maxlength=255 value="">

is to short as in height.

How can i make the height bigger?

Thanks
