Textarea
The Textarea component represents a multi-line plain-text editing control, useful when you want to allow users to enter a sizeable amount of free-form text.
Usage
Use a Textarea if you want to allow the user to write over multiple lines. Otherwise use a TextField.
Anatomy
A. Label
The text label associated with the Textarea.
B. Optional label
Indicates if the input is optional. The optionalLabel also removes the required attribute from the input.
C. Field
The container in which a user's selected data is shown.
D. Action
Mostly a link that can refer more information on the subject.
E. Value
The content the user has entered into the field.
F. Message
Give additional information to the user.
G. Resizer
The user is able to resize the Textarea vertically.
Required vs optional
Rather than using an asterisk (*) to indicate required form inputs, Chameleon treats all form elements as required by default and displays an optionalLabel for fields that are optional.
