    Hi,

    On my wordpress site I have the following code in place-

    

<textarea rows="5" name="textarea" cols="35">
line 1
line 2
line 3
line 4
line 5
line 6
</textarea>
    Code (markup):
    However when I view the page, this is rendering out as-

    
<br />
line 1<br />
line 2<br />
line 3<br />
line 4<br />
line 5<br />
line 6<br />
    Code (markup):
    I've been banging my head for the last couple of hours with this and cannot work it out!

    Can anyone help at all? Im sure its something simple and im been stupid

    Thanks

    Well, if it's a page built with the WP page editor you won't be able to put a lot of html code, especially if in your configuration you said to strip all the html tags.
