Hi,

 

very simple i'm sure... i have a code for a text box to pull info into from a mysql table. easy enough:

 

<?php echo "<input type=\"text\" id=\"b_info\" name=\"b_info\" value=\"$b_info\" style=\"width: 327px\"  /text>"; ?>

 

but suppose i dont just want a "line of text" i want one of those boxes with the scroll bar down the side (lol like the one im writing this in  ;D) how do i change the above code to do it?

 

i though doing this:

<?php echo "<input type=\"textarea\" id=\"b_info\" name=\"b_info\" value=\"$b_info\" style=\"width: 327px\" style=\"height: 185px\" /textarea>"; ?>

 

would work, but obviously not, all ive done is make the box bigger  :confused:

 

easy workaround?

 

Thanks
