Textarea

Displays a textarea. By default the textarea is displayed with three rows. You can increase the number of rows by setting the rows attribute. Example, rows="5".

                    
                        <x-bladewind.textarea  />

Add Placeholder Text

                    
                        <x-bladewind.textarea placeholder="Comment"  />

With Labels

You can display the BladewindUI textarea with labels. Labels present themselves as placeholders but jump to the top border of the textarea when that field has focus. This is a nice way to build compact looking forms without having form labels in the way. If you prefer to create and style your own form labels, simply ignore the label attribute and use the placeholder attribute instead.

Comment

                    
                        <x-bladewind.textarea label="Comment"  />

Required Fields

This either adds a red asterisk sign to the placeholder text or a red star to the label of the textarea field.

Comment

                    
                        <x-bladewind.textarea required="true" label="Comment"  />

See component/input documentation on Validating Required Fields.

Events

You can append any of the available HTML event attributes (onclick, onblur, onfocus, onmouseover, onmouseout, onkeyup, onkeydown etc) to the component, just like you would to a regular <textarea ... tag. The border of the textarea below turns red onfocus and to gray onblur.

Comment

                    
                        <x-bladewind.texarea 
                            name="events" 
                            label="Comment" 
                            required="true" 
                            onfocus="changeCss('.events', '!border-2,!border-red-400')" 
                            onblur="changeCss('.events', '!border-2,!border-red-400', 'remove')">
                        </x-bladewind.textarea>
