Because the HTML Rec specified that a textarea element may only contain PCDATA. Furthermore, if you try to trick the textarea by writing a <![CDATA[...]]> string into it (say if you were dong it using javascript), IE and Mozilla handle it differently. IE displays what you would expect (the contents without the <![CDATA[]]> envelope, but Moz displays something broken like [CDATA[...]]. So even if you were willing, you could not be sure what the result would be. Cheers, Tom P XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
