you may have seen input textbox becomes wider
dynamically in some websites when mouse cursor is
placed on it(in focus) to take some user input.It's
attractive to see and in this way it makes spaces
for larger input.

the following codes shows how to do that using
jquery in asp.net pages.you may use
if in php pages too.it's nice and appealing -

<head runat="server">
<title>Untitled Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="Script/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#input").focus(function(){
$("#input").animate({width:"200px"});
});
$("#input").blur(function(){
$("#input").css("width","50px");
});

});
</script>
<style type="text/css">
.textstyle
{
width:50px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:ScriptManager ID="s1" runat="server">
</asp:ScriptManager>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="u1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>

<div id="test" style="margin-top:20px;">
Enter your name: <br />
<%--<input type="text" id="input"
style="width:50px;" />--%>
<asp:TextBox ID="input" CssClass="textstyle"
runat="server" /></div>

</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel></form></body></html>
