Heya i'm new here and need help....DESPARATLY....

I'm no expert @ HTML but can do the basic stuff (images, text, colour ect) but i'm trying to add a textarea to my page. I've found the code and manged to get one up :) HOWEVER....anyone looking at the page can simply delte the text..! I want it displays what i wnt it to say and can only be changed by me in the HTML coding.

I've heard of Readonly and Disabled but just can't understand how that works!!

HELPPPPPP :confused:

just add READONLY to the textarea code :P as is the same with DISABLED :)

and just so you know, just cause they can delete the text, it doesn't stay like that, other visitors will always see what you have typed originally!

<textarea rows="XX" cols="XX" readonly="readonly">
text here
</textarea>

adjust the rows and cols values as desired.
