sierradwyer Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I am using Dreamweaver to design my site.I want to make a <textarea> where I can put content in and I only want the <textarea> to scroll as I don't want the whole site "scrollable".1. Is it possible to set the <textarea> box size in width and height in pixels? Or can I only use columns and rows?2. Am I able to place the <textarea> anywhere I want on my site or do I have to set margin value's in order to place it where I want?3. And am I able to give the text area a background color and change the opacity? Or can I use an image for the <textarea> bg and set the opacity?Any help appreciated guys...

justsomeguy Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Rather than a textarea, it sounds like you want to just use a div that you can put other HTML content into. A textarea would show the HTML code, not the elements.<div style="width: 600px; height: 600px; overflow: auto;">content</div>Those style rules are explained in the CSS tutorials. Overflow tells it to scroll if the content is too large for the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
