html文本区域可以包含只读文本和可编辑文本的组合吗

Question

this a is quite an open question regarding a <textarea> that is embedded within a form.

Is at all possible to have read only text that can not be edited and then within the same <textarea> an option to start writing text.

My problem is that I can have only one or the other. If not is there any solutions to have a hard coded message appear in the <textarea> before the text can be written.

Thanks for your time and sorry for the newbie sort or question.

Answer 1

Can a html text area have a combination of read only and editable text

No.

If not is there any solutions to have a hard coded message appear in the before the text can be written.

<p>The quick brown <input name="jumping_animal">
   jumped over the lazy <input name="lazy_animal">.</p>

Answer 2

Does it need to be a textarea?

Try editing the blue text

<div>
    sadsaasdfasd sadfasdf sa sd <span contenteditable>sadf asdf</span>
</div>

Answer 3

Yes you can't have both read only text with writable property for a textarea.

Answer to your second question:

<script>
    $('#input_textarea').focus(function() {
       if( $(this).val() == "Some text...." ) {
           $(this).val("");
       }           
    });
    $('#input_textarea').blur(function() {
       if( $(this).val() == "" ) {
           $(this).val('Some text....');
       }           
    });
</script>

This will work as a placeholder for your textarea.
