textarea formatting

[natalieG]

when we use the below code, the text in the testarea is indented about half the textarea width
instead of starting at the left margin. we have tried changing $NOTE to: trim($NOTE) and this does
not solve the problem.

[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--][b]<tr><td width="664" COLSPAN="2"><textarea name="NOTE" rows="20" cols="85" tabindex="1"> <?php echo $NOTE;?></textarea></td>[/b][!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]

Could be alignment of the table
try <td align=left width=664 colsspan=2>

There's nothing in the code you posted to explain any of that (unless $note has tabs), so the cause must lie elsewhere. Can we have a link to the online page where this is happening?
