Confiforms Textarea not showing placeholder text

471 views Asked by At

I've got a weird issue. I was doing some minor modifications on a form built with confiforms. I've added placeholder text to several of the fields. These fields are type textarea. When I save and view the page there is no placeholder text in those fields. There is, however, a space in the field. If I delete the space the placeholder's display. I have no clue why confluence would be putting a space in those fields. Placeholders work on text fields, but not textarea fields. I can't find anything in the documentation or online suggesting this is a problem, I am stumped. I am the space admin, but not a confluence admin.

Have tried removing the space between the opening and closing tag of the textarea, if there are any blank spaces they come as an input to your textarea. if this doesnt work try aria-placeholder https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Attributes/aria-placeholder
