<h4> Contact Us </h4>

Try this👇🏻
<input type="textarea" placeholder="write message here"/>

Answer 2

Nikitha Rai You can try this :

<textarea name="massage" > Your Placeholder Massage
</textarea>

Fyi: textarea is different from input tag and it is a pair tag and you cant have the placeholder attribute for it. Instead anything goes between the code opening and closing tag will display as an editable content on the web page by default.

I hope this will help you ☺️

Answer 3
