- --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. -
