how to increase height and width of a input text box in pug/jade


input(type="text" id="body" name="body" rows="100" cols="100" maxlength="300" tabindex="100" value="" rows="100" cols="100"  autocomplete="off" required)

I have done this but isn't working...


Solution

  • <input type="text" /> elements are single-line only input fields. The Mozilla Web Docs describes them as:

    A single-line text field. Line-breaks are automatically removed from the input value.

    To have an input that accepts multiple lines, and in order use the rows and cols attributes, you need to use a <textarea> element instead of an <input>.
