Question

Ok since I’m not good with css, I am using a free css template and somewhere I messed up, because now the textfields isnt displaying an initial value.

I tested a plain textfield everywhere on the page and the value isnt showing however when I created a new html file, linked the css and created a textfield it displays the value.

Can you please point out what’s causing this and how i can fix it, or explain how i can override what’s causing this?

TEXTAREAs do not use the value attribute. They display what is contained between the opening and closing tags.

E.g.,

<textarea name="comment">I really like this article!</textarea>
