Textarea is a form field that can contain multi-line text.
You add a textarea using the <textarea>
tag.
Unlike <input />
, this tag requires an opening and closing tag:
<textarea></textarea>
Inside it, we can add a value for the content displayed:
<textarea>Hello</textarea>
We can set the size of the textarea
using HTML attributes:
rows
sets the number of rowscols
sets the number of columns
<textarea rows='13' cols='40'></textarea>
As usual to send data to the server we add a name
attribute to it.
