For the default value, add it in the model. Maybe in an after_initialize callback. For the row and col values, read the documentation. http://api.rubyonrails.org/?q=text_area -- Dheeraj Kumar On Wednesday 13 March 2013 at 11:28 AM, karthik Satyanarayana wrote:> Hi all, Since I am new to ruby on rails.

Hey If you want default values add them in your model. If you are talking about a placeholder in your view: form_for() do |f| f.text_area :name, :rows => 5, :placeholder => "Your Text here...." AS you can see i set 5 rows for the text area AS default to display. And there is some placeholder text in it... Hope this helps you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
