Hi,

I want to add a multi line text field to a twiki form but the following renders just like my other input field i.e. presents like any other single line text entry field:-

<form name="new" action="%SCRIPTURLPATH{save}%/%WEB%/" method="post">

Subject:	<input type="text" name="Subject" value="" size="40" class="twikiInputField" />
Description:	<input type="textarea" name="Description" size="80x10" value="" class="twikiInputField" />
	<input type="submit" class="twikiSubmit" value="Create New Note" />

<input type="hidden" name="topicparent" value="NotesDB" /> <input type="hidden" name="templatetopic" value="NoteTemplate" /> <input type="hidden" name="onlynewtopic" value="on" /> <input type="hidden" name="onlywikiname" value="on" /> </form>

Thanks for any help that can be offered here.

Thanks Enrique I checked this out and have replaced the <input="textarea".../> field with a <textarea.../> and pleased to say that the problem has been resolved!

Thanks Colin
