Textarea as input

Question

I get that textarea is its own element and not an input type, but how can I convert

<input type="text"
    class="media_url"
    name="media[image_url][]"
    value=""
/>

to use textarea instead? Or is there a better way to have a text input field display as a different height and have the text wrap and not be middle vertically aligned?

no. text inputs are inherently single-line fields. You can change their height via css, but you canNOT change them to become multi-line. That's why there's textareas. — Marc B, Nov 24 '14 at 16:23
What exactly are you asking for? How to use a `textarea`? Any reason why you want to use `input`? — musefan, Nov 24 '14 at 16:23
