The number of rows the fieldset has. This parameter may be omitted for a default of 5
.PP
.B "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.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Adds a labelled textarea to a form. Since the labelled textarea is enclosed within a division, the parent element may be the form itself. Text areas are useful for entering large amounts of user input, or where the user input needs to contain new lines. The textarea and its label will be separated by a line break.
