    Hey all,

    I am having a big problem with a textarea in Firefox, in other browsers the text go's to the next line fine when it reaches the end of the box but in Firefox it continues to type on one line making a horizontal scroll bar.

    Any fixes for this people?

    Please make sure to definte col attribute e.g
    <textarea rows="5" name="S1" cols="50"></textarea>
    It works very well in both FF3.0 & IE

    Thats exactly what I have: http://www.shaneboard.net/contact.php

    I only noticed the issue today so I am confused if maybe it is related to an update to Firefox?

    Does that textarea box work in Firefox 3 for everyone else then?
