The definition for the textarea element is incorrect.
The textarea element is rendering Rows + 1.
For example:
If <Textarea name="ProposedDevelopment" rows=4 cols=44></textarea>, the browser
is displaying 5 rows.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Code basic HTML page with a textarea element
2.Open in browser.
Actual Results:
Renders rows + 1
Expected Results:
Conformed to the W3C specification.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.7
rows = number [CN]
This attribute specifies the number of visible text lines. Users should be
able to enter more lines than this, so user agents should provide some means to
scroll through the contents of the control when the contents extend beyond the
visible area.
May not technically be a bug but makes trying to use CSS2 to line up divs difficult.
Also, has to be a problem if IE can get it right.
