I´m sorry its not simplified, I was afraid that some important mistake
might fall by the wayside. My first suspect was HTML, but after spending 2-
3 hours changing stylesheets and table cell definitions, my conclusion was
that I have a problem in storing creating large strings EXACTLY the way
they are stored. Another bad side effect is that after a certain amount of
text in the textarea, the Internet explorer does´nt carry out the CGI
request!!!! on the contrary to the Netscape, which sends off everything
given to it no matter how large the string.
Thanks for your anticipated help
