Adding Multiline Text Fields

You can use multiline text fields to collect larger amounts of information from a user by providing a text area with multiple lines in which the visitor can type. Typical multiline text fields collect comments and feedback from visitors. In this exercise, you will place a multiline text field in the table inside the form.

1.
Place the insertion point anywhere inside the text below the list control. Use the tag selector to select the <label> tag, press the right arrow key once, and press Return (Macintosh) or Enter (Windows). The insertion point is now where it should be: inside the fieldset but outside of the list control.

In the Forms category on the Insert bar, click the Textarea button.
