    In order to view the text with proper line breaks, you need to replace the new line with BR tags, or you can wrap all the text in a PRE tag.

    Example of result using BR tags:
    HTML Code:
    {Name} ok stop right there.<br>
    <br>

      Hi mike,
      You need to use a div and style it to look like a textarea. After all, textarea is for form submission and not for content.

      overflow:scroll;
      font-family: monospace;

      I'm not sure exactly which border, I think inset should look good.

      Mike,

      Did you mean you want to have those text to appear with proper new lines in a textarea? That's what I understood earlier, but I tried using your HTML myself, and it appeared just fine - tested in IE, Firefox and Chrome. So I guessed maybe you were actually asking on how to make it appear correctly when you posted it from the textarea.
