align a textarea box to the right of the page

you'd have to put the <textarea> tag into a <p> tag.

Code:

<p align="right"><textarea></textarea></p>

that works perfectly

hope this helps!

Since all of that was deprecated years ago it would be better to use CSS and do this:

Code:

<textarea style="float:right">hello</textarea>

you can try this code i hope so it will help for you:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Right the textarea</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div align = "right">
    <textarea placeholder="noticeboard" cols="25" rows="15">

    </textarea> <br />
    </div>
    </body>
</html>
