Hi, 

Is there a way I can limit the spacing in a textarea when the user hits enter, 
within the textarea, to start a new paragraph? What happens now is it skips 
multiple lines and makes the resulting email have huge gaps between 
paragraphs. 

I went on an HTML forum, and someone wrote this: 

"if the form is being submitted to a server side script then you have to edit 
the script to remove the linefeeds\carraige returns (or newlines). This varies 
a little depending on the platform of the PC sending the data, but generally 
\r\n are the meta characters for linefeed\newline that is sent with the 
textarea if there is more than one line sent." 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Rich
