I haven't specified fonts, leaving the user to have their chosen font.
However, different tags render in different default fonts: text, input,
& textarea all different from one another. I guess this is normal
behaviour, but it looks poor, and I don't want our website to look that
way (to out of the box browsers).
How would I set textarea's 'like' input, or how would I determine
(Javascript?) what's being used by an input field, to set the textarea
the same ? If it's got to be javascript, is there a way to set style for
all textareas together, rather than individual textareas ?
The difference between input boxes & text is bearable, if necessary, but
the textarea default font stands out too much.
Thanks,
Chris

Didn't try this, but how about
body,input,text area{
font-family:Helvetic a,sans-serif;
font-size:100%;
}
?

Sorry - I wasn't clear - I don't want to overrule all users' font
choices - I want to leave body alone, and have textarea 'like' body, and
maybe input & select too.
Sort of textarea { font-family: inherit }
hmm - just tried that - answered my own question - sorry for wasting
everybody's time !!

Yes you were

I did get that, just didn't think of a solution without having
to use at least a generic font... (don't know why I put the
Helvetica in :S)

Didn't waste it, you provided other people (like myself) with

Hello I´ve got a question concerning the usage of a textarea in a xsl.
When i just write the following code,
<span style="font-size:12.0pt; "><textarea name="hotelbeschreibung"
rows="5" cols="35"></textarea>
</span>
The textarea is filled up with the complete rest of the xsl code.
When I put in a sign like this - everything works and the sign is
shown in the textarea.

Does js have some way of doing what I want here:
I want to paste a multiline block of text into a TEXTAREA form field,
and there is data in the block of text that I want to extract into a
variable. It's always going to be as the same column and row position
of the block of text.
For example, I want to extract the text from the block from say Line 3,
column 4 through Line 3, column 15 into a variable.

Please forgive the simplicy of this question. I have the following code
which attempts to determine the color of some text and set other text
to match that color. It works fine in Firefox, but does nothing in IE.
I'd be greatful for any assistance. Also, if I will have problems the
code on Opera or Safari, I'd appreciate any pointers--I don't have a
Mac to test Safari.
THanks very much,
