Is there a more proper way to change values as with forms?

 

F.e.

You are on your own user page where you should be able to change your email.

currently there are textareas shown beneeth each value that can be changed with the current value,

you can change the textarea its value and you need to click on submit.

is there a more proper way?

I think you're needing Javascript...

 

<textarea name="mytext"></textarea>
<input type="button" value="Change" onclick="document.form.mytext.value='i am here'" />

Is there a more proper way?  Not really.  But for your example I would use a INPUT line and not a Textarea.

HTML

Look at the first Input Text example.

TEXTAREA is a chunk of text (including multiple lines) whereas INPUT only one line.

were just talking basic html here

 

Textarea (for large chunks of text such as descriptions)

<textarea></textarea>

 

Input for text (for things like names,emails, streetnames etc)

<input type="text" />
