I am trying to style the text area so that this indentation or extra white space area is not there. Does anyone know how this might be done?[color=#4f76ac]Thank you...[/color]

No, dont see it, all tight against left edge FF, Safari, Chrome, IE, Opera, sure you don't have padding, or text-indent applied somewhere?

<textarea id="event_memo" style="padding: 0px; width: 300px; height: 50px;"><?php echo $event_memo; ?></textarea></br></br> The above works out much better. At first I thought it was the way the PHP is however a text area does not have a value property to set. It does look normal this way. Thanks for your reply.
