    Hi,

    Is it possible to put text inside TEXTAREA in different colors? Say first line in red, second line in blue. I have to do something like that but am not sure how to do it. Any pointers/directions will be highly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!!

    Best Regards,
    Inderpal Singh

    i believe you can modify it's attributes as a whole - but I don't think you can make a standard textarea colorized/stylized different for different portions of it.

    Hi,

    I know it's not possible to put different color text inside TEXTAREA field. but, is there any component (works in both IE and Firefox) which I can use in HTML where I can put different color text and should be scrollable?

    Best Regards,

    Yeah...a Div...just need to have the style of overflow on it.

    <div style="height:200;width:300;border:3px inset;overflow:scroll;">
    <div style="color:red;">I am red</div>
    <div style="color:green;">I am green</div>
    <div style="color:blue;">I am blue</div>
    <div style="color:red;">I am red</div>
    <div style="color:green;">I am green</div>
    <div style="color:blue;">I am blue</div>
    <div style="color:red;">I am red</div>
    <div style="color:green;">I am green</div>
    <div style="color:blue;">I am blue</div>
    <div style="color:red;">I am red</div>
    <div style="color:green;">I am green</div>
    <div style="color:blue;">I am blue</div>
    </div>

    I've tried, but it does not work:

    
<html>
<head />
<body>

<textarea id="miarea" name="miarea" rows="7" cols="50" style="font-size:11px;">

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-1234567890123456";
google_alternate_color = "FFFFFF";
google_ad_width = 300;
google_ad_height = 250;
google_ad_format = "300x250_as";
google_ad_type = "text";
google_color_border = "444444";
google_color_bg = "777777";
google_color_link = "0000CC";
google_color_url = "008000";
google_color_text = "000000";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

</textarea>


</body>
</html>
    Code (markup):

    BTW, why you need ads inside a textarea ?

    I like to run 2 kind of websites. One kind that wants to be helpful, like this
    wamp.lunlun.com, with little or no ads, and others where ads are placed everywhere.

    I'm curious, in the long run, which ones will be appreciated more. :)
