Example form is linked to a database table, but won't be saved in this example.

When you submit the form, the value is presented with debug_dump(), so strings are quoted and array values listed.

:
: - Stop the submitted form from bring processed
: - Don't process the form, redirect to another page (e.g. login after session timeout), and remember the values for when they return.

<?php
	$field = new form_field_textarea($form, 'Message');
	$field->db_field_set('message');
	$field->min_length_set('Your message is required.');
	$field->max_length_set('Your message cannot be longer than XXX characters.');
	$field->cols_set(40);
	$field->rows_set(5);
