validator and textArea

Hello,

Why TextArea don't have setValidator function like TextInput. 

I would like validate a form with both TextInput and TextArea.

If someone know why ?


Best regards

Duto

This was actually by design. The use cases for TextInput and TextArea are quite different. Text in a TextArea doesn't generally require "validation" in the same way that TextInput text does. It's likely to impose a significant performance penalty if you try to validate a text area on every keystroke. Instead, text area content is generally validated on a "submit".

Hi

It's a good idea. Plus submit a JIRA feature request so we don't lose
track of this.
