Question

All the stuff I’m finding on google or Stackoverflow are about the height of the textbox, not the number of rows/lines.

I want to have a textbox with more than one line (for a “send a message” feature)

How can I achieve that?

Thanks a lot

EDIT: I want to use an input type=”text”, because I want to use it in a form.

You could use some simple maths…

number of lines = height / line height

So if you wanted two lines in your textarea…

textarea {
    height: 30px;
    line-height: 15px;
}
