[SOLVED] How do you persist textarea message on failed submission

Hello all, hoping someone can help with this one fairly quickly.

I have a contact form working perfectly well on Revo site 2.1.3 using Formit version 2.0.2, however, have had a "complaint" from a client's customer who wasn't happy that when trying to send a message when it failed due to an incorrect recaptcha input, the message in the text area was removed but the other fields persisted meaning he had to re-enter the message.

My question is how do you get textarea messages to persist if recaptcha is entered incorrectly?

Thanks in advance. [ed. note: boomerang last edited this post 12 years, 4 months ago.]

Just insert the placeholder inside the textarea tags.

Brilliant, thanks for the quick response...
