Note also that no wrapping occurs even if the width is set by CSS (e.g. style="width: 200px") unless there is a Cols attribute (the value of the Cols attribute is, in this case, ignored - but it must be present for wrapping to occur). See http://www.newhouses.f2s.com/mozilla_testing/textarea_wrap.html and bug 143757.

Note: Cols is a #required attribute of TextArea it is not optional. http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#edef-TEXTAREA

Surely it's OK to set the size using CSS (e.g. style="width: 200px") instead of cols= ? Still, no excuse for the odd wrapping behaviour.

Newsflash: The testcase wraps just fine and dandy in 2002100714, winXP. Somebody musta fixed something by accident...

Yep, both the attached testcase and my testcase (see comment 12) now seem to work fine (2002101508 Linux).

Yeah this was fixed with the checkin for bug 164641 ... I just forgot to close this bug out as fixed.
