Hi Victor, You'll find the textarea and input tags differ significantly, even though they're both typically used in HTML forms. The W3C page has a fair overview of how various parts of HTML forms work in HTML 4.01, and it's roughly accurate for XHTML up to 1.1 as well: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html HTH, Rami > -- > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list > > -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
