Textarea & Select

Relax. We'll talk through this in plain words — no textbook voice.

<textarea> is for writing longer chunks of text, and <select> is for dropdown lists. Both are heavily used in contact forms and feedback forms.

html

<label for="message">Message</label>
<textarea id="message" name="message" rows="5" placeholder="Write your message..."></textarea>

<label for="service">Choose service</label>
<select id="service" name="service">
  <option value="web">Web Design</option>
  <option value="video">Video Editing</option>
  <option value="ai">AI Automation</option>
</select>
