Description: ------------ It would be useful if one could use a textarea tag for the "other" option instead of input type text. Perhaps it could be implemented using an option to be passed to the IncludeOther method, either true or false, or string "text" / "textarea" to indicate the tag required.

I've thought of adding the same thing a couple of times ;)

I think the string option, 'text' or 'textarea', best fits here. Thanks for the patch but I'd rather use styles in preference to tables to get the top alignment of the label. And I'd also rather still use a single parameter to setIncludeOther and test the type of it.

Looks good :) Sorry about the table, but I was just too lazy to work out the style for the label. I prefer styles as well. Btw, could something be done regarding Validation? I tried adding a grouprule (required, min 1), but it doesn't work since the validation is checking for == '' when it should be checking for '.checked' (for checkboxes). In the end I had to ditch QF rules and implement my own using jQuery. I would prefer to use QF validation to keep it within the same code base.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET). If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly. Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release. Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.
