Vue Form Text Component

Vue textarea components. Give textual form `<textarea>`s an upgrade with custom styles, sizing, focus states, validation, and more.

Other frameworks

CoreUI components are available as native Angular, Bootstrap (Vanilla JS), and React components. To learn more please visit the following pages.

Example

Must be 8-20 words long.
<CForm>
  <CFormTextarea
    id="exampleFormControlTextarea1"
    label="Example textarea"
    rows="3"
    text="Must be 8-20 words long."
  ></CFormTextarea>
</CForm>

If you need to add custom classs to form's components, or need to add some custom elements you can add each form component separately. Please check the example below.

<CFormLabel for="exampleFormControlTextarea1">Example textarea</CFormLabel>
<CFormTextarea id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="3"></CFormTextarea>
<CFormText component="span" id="passwordHelpInline">Must be 8-20 words long.</CFormText>

You can also use slots.

<CFormTextarea id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="3">
  <template #label>Example textarea</template>
  <template #text>Must be 8-20 word long.</template>
</CFormTextarea>

Disabled

Add the disabled boolean attribute on an input to give it a grayed out appearance and remove pointer events.

<CFormTextarea
  class="mb-3"
  placeholder="Disabled textarea"
  aria-label="Disabled textarea example"
  disabled>
</CFormTextarea>

Readonly

Add the readonly boolean attribute on an textarea to prevent modification of the textarea's value. Read-only textareas appear lighter (just like disabled textareas), but retain the standard cursor.

<CFormTextarea
  placeholder="Readonly textarea"
  aria-label="Readonly textarea example"
  disabled
  readonly
></CFormTextarea>
