Text area Height and width using zurb foundation

Question

I'm brand new to zurb, infact just found it yesterday. I still like it, but I can’t understand, something simple. I can do this with css, but I wanted to know if there is another approach to this.

I want to be able to set the width and height of the text area. Like on this fiddle.

`<textarea id="content" placeholder="Nothing yet!!" class="large-12" style="margin: 0px -275.672px 0px 0px; height: 319px; width: 580px;" 

Answer 1

this is a small mistake in the foundation

open your css and add the following

 textarea { height: auto; } 

then you can create your text box as you wish, and rows will work as well

Example

 <textarea rows="5" name="textareaname" cols="50"></textarea> 

UPDATE:

This bug is now fixed in Foundation 5.
