Textarea default indenting?

[plummer]

Ok, i have a textarea on a form and whenever i bring up the page and tab down to it......it is indented in about 5 spaces inside the textarea. Anyone know what the scoup would be? Thanks.

Do you have padding inside the text area?

also, any code you could give would be helpful

Sorry....code would be good. Here is the snippet.

<fieldset>
<legend>Insert New Pricing Record</legend>
<ol>
<li><a href="view_price.php">View Pricing Records</a></li>
<li><a href="../admin.php">Admin Menu</a></li>
<li><a href="../index.php">Homepage</a></li>
</ol>
<form action="insert_price.php" method="post">
<p>Title: <input type="text" name="title" size="50" maxlength="50" value="<?php if (isset($_POST['title'])) echo $_POST['title']; ?>" />
</p>
<p>Description:
<textarea name="description" cols="75" rows="10"><?php if (isset($_POST['description'])) echo $_POST['description']; ?>
</textarea>
</p>
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Insert" />
</p>
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="TRUE" />
</form>
</fieldset>

try this code

<textarea name="description" cols="75" rows="10"><?php if (isset($_POST['description'])) echo $_POST['description']; ?></textarea>

you mean to tell me that just putting the closing </textarea> tag on the end of the line (instead of on the next) does it?? Cause i don't see any other difference between your soluntion and mine. But hey guess what.........IT WORKS! Thanks dude. Much appreciated.

if you make this code the problem is the same

<textarea name="description" cols="75" rows="10">
<?php if (isset($_POST['description'])) echo $_POST['description']; ?>
</textarea>
