How to place line number in the Textarea ?

[Peter910]

Dear Friends in the house, I am new in the house.

I use PHP.
I want to place a line numbers in the textarea just like the one in the attachment.

Thank you all for your help.

how are you outputting the text right now?

Or are you just looking to format code-snippets to look like that on the browser? If so, you can do this with CSS.

If you want to print the numbers, use PHP, if using HTML, use an <ol>.

Dear dlite922, thank you.

I eventually used CSS to format the background with image and use PHP to generate the numbers. All as you advised

Though, I still facing little challenges. but I am sure, I will get over it.

Anytime, I finish with it, I will upload the details to the forum, perhaps, friends can benefit from it.

Thank you one, thank all.
