+ ++ + The TextArea class implements a multi-line text entry control. The control + is useful for situations when users need to enter long text. +
+ + + ++ + +TextEntryControl +
+ ++[TextArea] new TextArea(String id, String caption, String text, Integer rows)+ +
+ + Creates a new instance of the TextArea class. +
+ ++id
+ + + ++ + Unique identifier for the control. Can be retrieved using the id property defined + in the UIElement class that this control inherits from. Useful for example to + identify the source of an event in event callback functions or to apply a CSS + rule to only this particular control. The identifier can be null, in which case + no id will be set for the control. +
+ + ++caption
+ + + ++ + The caption text for the control. A null caption can be used to hide the + caption area. The value is an XHTML string. +
+ + ++text
+ + + ++ + The text to display in the text area. If the argument is omitted or null then + the text area will not contain any text when created. + The value is a plain text string (not XHTML). +
+ + ++rows
+ + + ++ + The argument specifies how many rows the text area should have. If omitted the + text area will default to have 3 rows of text. Note that it is still possible + to enter more than 3 lines of text. The rows define the height of the text area + and thus how many lines of text are visible without scrolling. +
+ + ++ + A new instance of the TextArea class. +
