you’d need to assign a class to the text area. it’d look something like this (remove all asterisks):
in the head tag —
<*style type="text/css"*>
.namehere {
padding-top: 30px;
}
<*/style*>
and then in the body wherever you wanted the textarea —
<*textarea class="namehere"*>
your text here
<*/textarea*>
you’d adjust the 30px value accordingly based on how much space you want to allow. i’ve never tried assigning padding to a textarea so i don’t know if that would work, but that’s what i’d try first. i hope this is helpful. good luck!
