oops...i did read the problem description, but i when i tried the code
it worked for me and when i put spaces into the TextArea it wasn't
reflected correctly back. So i thought this was the problem.

Adrian, can you still try replacing spaces with &nbsp; via the
following;

#!/usr/bin/python
import cgi
import urllib
import cgitb
cgitb.enable()
print "Content-type: text/html\n"
form = cgi.FieldStorage()
#print urllib.quote_plus(form["essay"].value)

for char in form["essay"].value:
   if char == ' ':
      print "&nbsp;"
   else:
      print char


Cheers
