<input id='input1' type='text'></input>
<input id='input2' type='button'></input>
<input id='input3' type='checkbox'><input>
<textarea id='myTextArea'></textarea>
In HTML markup, most places where the user can interact with the page are denoted with the <input>
tag. Why is it that textarea has its own tag, <textarea>
as opposed so, say, <input type='textarea'>
