For my experience, it's better to not use rows and cols for dimensioning textareas, because the dimensions of the textarea will depend from the dimensions of the row and of the column, that rely to font properties and change from browser to browser; it would be a good choice to set dimensions with css (width and height, to be clear). Consider this:
<html> <head> </head> <body> <textarea cols="10" rows="10" style="font-size: 10px"></textarea><br> <textarea cols="10" rows="10" style="font-size: 20px"></textarea><br> </body> </html> textareas dimensions are very different; this: <html> <head> </head> <body> <textarea cols="10" rows="10" style="font-family: Arial"></textarea><br> <textarea cols="10" rows="10" style="font-family: Verdana"></textarea><br> </body> </html> I obtain 136x208 vs 138x228; on Firefox, 79x164 vs 89x164 on Chromium -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
