Textareas are HTML <textarea> elements of the form

<textarea></textarea>

Binding a Textarea to a Process Variable

A textarea input can be bound to a process variable using the cam-variable-type and cam-variable-name directives:

<textarea cam-variable-name="CUSTOMER_ADDRESS"
          cam-variable-type="String">
</textarea>

In the example above, the textarea is bound to the variable named CUSTOMER_ADDRESS of type String.

Supported Variable Types for Textareas

The textarea supports the same variable types as the single line text input <input type="text"></input>.
