Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>How to define additional details that the user can view or hide</title>
</head>
<body>
<details>  
<summary>PHP is a server side scripting language</summary>  
<p>PHP is a general-purpose server-side scripting language originally designed for web development to produce dynamic web   
pages. For this purpose, PHP code is embedded into the HTML source document and interpreted by a web server with a PHP   
processor module, which generates the web page document.</p>
  </details>
</body>
</html>

HTML-CSS: Tips of the Day

Should I size a textarea with CSS width / height or HTML cols / rows attributes?

I recommend to use both. Rows and cols are required and useful if the client does not support CSS. But as a designer I overwrite them to get exactly the size I wish.

The recommended way to do it is via an external stylesheet e.g.

HTML Code:

<textarea> </textarea>

CSS Code:

textarea {
  width: 300px;
  height: 150px;
}
