The HTML `<textarea>` element provides a multi-line plain text editing area. Unlike `<input>`, it has a closing tag and its default value goes between the tags rather than in a `value` attribute.
The `rows` and `cols` attributes set the visible size (though CSS is usually preferred). The `wrap` attribute controls line endings inserted when the form is submitted: `soft` sends no extra newlines, `hard` inserts newlines at the column boundary (requires `cols`). The `spellcheck` attribute enables or disables spell-checking in the browser.
