DESCRIPTION

This class models a text area, where users can type text.

INTERFACE

The interface is the same as the one described in CGI::Test::Form::Widget::Input, with the following additional attributes:

columns

Amount of displayed columns.

rows

Amount of displayed text rows.

wrap_mode

The selected work wrapping mode.

BUGS

Does not handle wrap_mode and columns yet. There is actually some work done by the browser when the wrapping mode is set to "hard", which alters the value transmitted back to the script upon submit.
