Experienced the same stupid behavior of textarea in combination with CFORMS.
Quick and dirty solution:
<textarea id="interesses">
<xsl:copy-of select="translate(xpath2yourfield-text, ' ', '')"/>
</textarea>
If you don't want to spend much time on it, this solution works, if you do want
to spend time, plz let me know if you find a decent solution
