Give textual form controls like <input>s and <textarea>s an upgrade with custom styles, sizing, focus states, and more.
<div class="mb-3">
<label for="exampleFormControlInput1" class="form-label">Email address</label>
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlInput1" placeholder="name@example.com">
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<label for="exampleFormControlTextarea1" class="form-label">Example textarea</label>
<textarea class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="3"></textarea>
</div>
Set heights using classes like .form-control-xl, .form-control-lg and .form-control-sm.
<input class="form-control form-control-xl mb-3" type="text" placeholder=".form-control-xl" aria-label=".form-control-xl example">
<input class="form-control form-control-lg border-primary" type="text" placeholder=".form-control-lg" aria-label=".form-control-lg example">
<input class="form-control border-success" type="text" placeholder="Default input" aria-label="deafult input example">
<input class="form-control form-control-sm border-danger" type="text" placeholder=".form-control-sm" aria-label=".form-control-sm example">
Add the disabled boolean attribute on an input to give it a grayed out appearance and remove pointer events.
<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Disabled input" aria-label="Disabled input example" disabled>
<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Disabled readonly input" aria-label="Disabled input example" disabled readonly>
Add the readonly boolean attribute on an input to prevent modification of the input’s value. Read-only inputs appear lighter (just like disabled inputs), but retain the standard cursor.
<input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Readonly input here..." aria-label="readonly input example" readonly>
If you want to have <input readonly> elements in your form styled as plain text, use the .form-control-plaintext class to remove the default form field styling and preserve the correct margin and padding.

Datalists allow you to create a group of <option>s that can be accessed (and autocompleted) from within an <input>. These are similar to <select> elements, but come with more menu styling limitations and differences. While most browsers and operating systems include some support for <datalist> elements, their styling is inconsistent at best.
