Adding a text area to my form

I have a form that has name, address, etc. form fields. Here is the bottom of that form (showing the last few lines in a Country drop down menu).

Could you please tell me what HTM I need and where to insert it to have a text area (10 rows and 30 characters) after this and before the send button? ...

value=Turkey>Turkey<OPTION value="United Kingdom">United Kingdom<OPTION value=US selected>United States<OPTION value=Venezuela>Venezuela<OPTION value=Viet_Nam>Viet Nam<OPTION value=N/A>Not listed</OPTION></SELECT></TD></TR>
<TR>
<TD>
<P></P>
<P></P></TD>
<TD bgColor=#ffffff>
<P><INPUT type=submit value=" Send "> </P></TD></FORM></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

Thanks for your help.

Chris,

Thanks for your reply. I was actually on the link before posting.

When I added that below the list of countries, it ended up with the text area box above everything else in my form. That's why I finally decided to come to the forum and ask for help.

So, if I wanted to use that example ...

<textarea rows="2" cols="20">
The cat was playing in the garden. Suddenly a dog showed up.....
</textarea>

... Where does it go exactly in my code so that it appears below the countries field?

Thanks for your help.
