Text Area

Text areas have a flexible height and content scrolls vertically.

Labels and the corresponding text area are intended to be wrapped in a containing element with a class of field.

A hint can be added immediately after the <label> in a paragraph with a class of field__hint.

A validation error message can be added immediately after the <label> or hint in a paragraph with a class of field__error.

Hints and validation error messages must be associated with the text area using unique IDs which can be referenced from the text area’s aria-describedby attribute. For more information, see WebAIM’s form validation error documentation.

Text areas with an associated error should also be given an aria-invalid attribute of true.
