Thank you for that - very useful

It still shows up in the cart as $0

This solution only works when you disable Multiple Booking . When you use Multiple Booking (shopping cart feature), It won't work !

I've gone into the fields.xml and edited the entries as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config>
<params>
<param name="contact_info" type="textarea" rows="10" cols="35" label="Contact:" description="This is a sample of textarea field"></param>
</params>
</config>

I just wanted one field labeled "Contact:" and a text area containing the names, address, phone, email, etc. info.

In the admin panel the text area shows as a large area for text entry but any carriage return or html code, such as <br>, truncates the rest of the info fro appearing on the front end.

I did go into the default.php file for events and added code that would allow use of a Joomla editor to manage data entry into this field. On the back end the Extra Information tab did display the Joomla editor and alllowed for html, but this information did not appear on the front end.

In the database I changed the table definition to LONGTEXT - that did not work (changed it back to text).

How can I add multiple lines of text in the text area (without adding numerous "spaces")?
