Hidden TextArea
Set CSS display
to none
for textarea
<textarea name="hide" style="display:none;"></textarea>
but is the css style tag the correct way to get cross browser compatibility?
<textarea style="display:none;" ></textarea>
or what I learned long ago....
<textarea hidden ></textarea>
or
the global hidden element method:
<textarea hidden="hidden" ></textarea>
An <input type=hidden>
element is not a hidden input box. It is simply a form field that has a value set via markup or via scripting, not via user input. You can use it for multi-line data too, e.g.
<input type=hidden name=stuff value=
"Hello
world, how
are you?">
If the value contains the Ascii quotation mark ("), then, as for any HTML attribute, you need to use Ascii apostrophes (') as attribute value delimites or escape the quote as "
, e.g.
<input type=hidden name=stuff value="A "funny" example">
