textareas in HTML export

Hi,

I think that exporting an example to HTML as textarea does not result in
correct HTML code.

I don't know if

,----
| <textarea cols="80" rows="2" overflow-x:scroll >
`----

has an effect in any user-agent but as this seems to be a css directive
this should probably read

,----
| <textarea cols="80" rows="2" style="overflow-x:scroll;" >
`----

However, I would leave out the overflow stuff completely as stylesheets
can be easily controlled by the user him/herself.  Furthermore, I would
suggest to leave out the newline after the textarea tag which always
produces an empty line at the beginning of the example. The following
does that:

Applied, thanks.

But I did move the overflow:x property into the css section (default  
style), because I think it is important *functionality* that should be  
there out off the box.

Thanks, Ulf!

thanks for that :)

Just as a suggestion: Wouldn't it be better to set `overflow-x' to
`auto' instead of `scroll'? This leaves it up to the user agent how to
render boxes with overflows. Major browsers (FF, IEs, Opera, Chrome) do
what you expect: display a scroll bar if it's necessary (text goes
beyond box border) or leave it out whenever it's not needed.

OK, I did that.  Thanks.
