After running tidy, I noticed that this code is being generated:
<textarea name="textfield" cols="50" rows="4">
</textarea>
Because </textarea> is output on the next line, about 50 characters are
being inserted between <textarea> & </textarea>. This will undoubtedly
confuse users when they find that they can click anywhere in the textbox;
further, if someone is not careful, extra whitespace will be inserted into
the output from the textbox, which could cause problems later.
Any way around this? Isn't this a bug, & wouldn't it be better if
</textarea> was on the same line as <textarea>?
Scott
