Below code only displays/accepts 4 characters as input in each row, where as I mentioned as 5. I have upgraded my PC win7 recently. I am sure the textarea is working as expected in my XP machine. \[code\]<html><head><title>Untitled Page</title></head><body><td><textarea id="txtNarrative" cols="5" rows="4">1234512345123</textarea></td></body></html>\[/code\]Please let me know how can I make it to accept 5 characters in each row.
