EditBox - Text to go into next line with scoll bar

Post by VEDRAN »

Hi
Is it possible to get the Text inside EditBox to do a line-break?
Also, the text to start at the TOp of the EditBox, and not the middle and then goes into infinity in the same line.
Like, if there is no room for the text to be shown in full in the EditBox current size on the page.
Also, a scroll bar on a side would be very very helpfull, especialy on small size screens, like phones.
Preaty much like Text Area would do and be like.
Right not, it is close to imposible to read the text inside editBox, if it is longer then the screen size.

The thing is. I am using this in Members page.
I create "Edit Account" and then, i Convert it into Form.
After coverting it automaticly into form by WYSIWYG, all fields are EditBox-es now.
So now, if I or user adds text that is longer then the EditBox size, the text will be nearly to imposible to read, or correct while typing etc.

Thanks for consideration.

An editbox is for single line input. it does not multi-line input.
See also the HTML specs:

For multi-line input you should use the TextArea.
