<textarea cols='90' name='question1' rows='15'></textarea> is one of them.
No wrap attribute is used.

Some clients would be formatted perfectly .. will some other will come out
iun a VERY bad shape.

I have two textarea

<textarea cols='90' name='question1' rows='15'></textarea>
<textarea name='question3' cols='90' rows='5'></textarea>


the form process
<form method="post" action="result.php">

here is result.php (part of)

$param = count($HTTP_POST_VARS);
foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $k => $v)
{
fwrite ($fp, "$v,");

}
fclose($fp);

Thanks NC for the suggestion (Made me look twice!!).
