word wrap

[EEjack]

I borrowed this post from one on here a few months ago, that never got answered
I'm having the same proble

In the FrontPage 2002 Discussion Wizard, one can create a
nice discussion forum and go into the HTML and
add '<pre>' so formatting like paragraphs and carriage
returns will work. How does one add proper 'word wrap'
in a FrontPage Discussion template? It could be 40, 60,
80, 100 characters or auto. As is, it just runs off the
page of the browser

Switch to HTML view and add a wrap= attribute to your
<textarea> tag.

wrap="soft" is the default. Text is displayed with
wordwrapping and submitted without carriage
returns and line feeds.
wrap="hard" Text is displayed with wordwrapping and
submitted with soft returns and line feeds.
wrap="off" Wordwrapping is disabled. The lines appear
exactly as the user types them.

Another previous post (dated 17-Jul-2001 and thanks,
Stefan) states that these attribute values have worked
since Netscape version 2.0 and Internet Explorer 4.0
