Synopsis
How to render a textarea input field
Description
textarea elements create larger text input fields that let the user enter a text. It also differs from other input fields as there is no value you can set. Instead you use an opening input type and a closing one. The value will be in between. See example.
Parameters
<textarea></textarea>
For all supported argument have a look at the link at the links section.
Example
<textarea name="comment" placeholder="Type your comment" required="required">This is the text value</textarea>
Notes
VisualEditor
If you have installed the VisualEditor and VEForAll extensions, you can associate a textarea with the VisualEditor interface for rich text editing. To do so, just add editor="ve"
to the _input
. You can have as many VE editors on a page as needed.
