title: Html.TextAreaFor width doesn't change
body: <p>How to change text area width in ASP.NET MVC View? I read questions about this problem here, but nothing helped. </p>
  
  <pre><code>@Html.TextAreaFor(m =&gt; m.Suggestions, new { @class = "text-area", placeholder = "Unesite svoje prijedloge..." })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>CSS:</p>
  
  <pre><code>.text-area {
      width:50%;
      height:100px;
      color:#3A3A3A;
      font-weight:bold;
      font-style:italic;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>All styles are applied except this for text area width.
  I also tried this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Html.TextAreaFor(m =&gt; m.Suggestions, new { rows = "7", cols = "70", @class = "text-area", placeholder = "Unesite svoje prijedloge..." })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But no result.</p>
