textarea

Renders a <textarea> element with automatic content re-population from submitted form data.

Usage

{% textarea name: 'message', class: 'form-control' %}

Options

All standard HTML textarea attributes are supported, including data- attributes. Pass them as key/value pairs.

Option	Description
name	Field name. Used to auto-populate content from submitted form data.
id	ID attribute.
class	CSS classes.
text	Default text content. Overridden automatically if a submitted value exists.
placeholder	Placeholder text.
required	Pass required: 'required' to mark the field as required.
data-*	Any data- attributes are supported, e.g. data-foo: 'bar'.

WARNING

Attributes without values are ignored — use required: 'required' rather than required alone.

Auto-population

When a name is set, the textarea content is automatically restored from submitted form data after a failed submission.

Example

{% textarea name: 'message', class: 'form-control', placeholder: 'Your message', required: 'required' %}
