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 &quot;, e.g.

<input type=hidden name=stuff value="A &quot;funny&quot; example">
