stop horizontal scrolling in textarea in Firefox 2

crmpicco · October 13th, 2007, 02:55 PM

I am developing my site in FF 2.0.0.7 and when I type into the text area the text carries on in the one line and does not wrap down onto the next line.

However, it works fine in IE 7. I thought I had the fix with the CSS styling I added, but it does not work. Looking at this forum for example, i presume I am writing into a textarea (using FF 2.0.0.7) and it has a working vertical scrollbar.

My HTML/CSS.

Code:

.textarea {
    overflow: scroll;
    overflow-y: scroll;
    overflow-x: hidden;
    overflow:-moz-scrollbars-vertical;
}

<textarea name="moreinfo" id="moreinfo" cols="45" rows="5" class="textarea"></textarea>

Cheers, Picco
