I have the text area I want now, but I still have a problem. How do you use html in the text area?

Example: I would like to make some of the text italic but whenever I put <i></i> around the text, it shows the tags in the text.

are you sure this doesn't work?

<xmp><textarea><i>YOURTEXTHERE</i></textarea>

If it doen't, then I don't know why :(

Sorry, forget the <xmp> tag. I meant -

<textarea><i>YOURTEXTHERE</i></textarea>

Text areas are for text, you cant use html in them.

You would have to use an Iframe to have it be a textarea with html...

or get an special textarea that does allow HTML:

<ilayer name="scroll1">
<div id="scroll3"
style="width:100;height:75;
background-color:COLORHERE;
overflow:auto">
TEXT HTML TEXT HTML
</textarea></div>
