    Textareas and wrap attribute

    When sending the contents of a text area to a server line breaks are appearing as 2 consecutive space characters. I'v tried to read up on this wrap attribute and have hit a few issues. From what I have seen it is not standardised from the W3C and IE and ns have their own ways of doing it. Even with that I have not been able to get i working using IE 6.0.2.

    Does anyone have any advice for getting this to work?

    in asp,

    mMessage = trim(request.form("textarea_name"))
    mMessage = Replace(mMessage,vbcrlf,"<br>",1)
