NAME
       HTMLDocument::addTextarea - Adds a textarea


SYNOPSIS
       ElementTree addTextarea( ElementTree parent, String name, String initialtext=createString(0), Int rows=5,
       Int cols=40 )


ARGUMENTS
       parent The parent element

       name The name of the textarea. Remember that names starting with "kaya_" may be used by the Kaya standard
       library and should not be used directly by applications.

       initialtext  The  initial  contents  of  the  textarea, if any. Thisparameter is optional, with the empty
       string as a default.

       rows The number of rows the fieldset has. This parameter may be omitted for a default of 5.

       cols The number of columns the fieldset has. This parameter may be omitted for a default of 40. Note that
       there  is  no browser-independent relationship between the number of columns in a text area, and the size
       of a normal text input, so getting them to be consistently the same width is not possible.


DESCRIPTION
       Adds a textarea to a form. Remember that textareas may not be added directly to the form -  you  need  to
       add  a  block-level  element such as fieldset to the form, and then add the textareas to that. Text areas
       are useful for entering large amounts of user input, or where the user input needs to contain new lines.
