    textmode? Not sure about that tag. Maybe an IE only tag?

    Give me a code snippet of your textbox code.

    You talking ASP.NET?

    EDIT: Ok you are. My bad. According to this page http://www.w3schools.com/aspnet/aspnet_textbox.asp the example they have works just fine for me in Firefox.

    Code:
    A multiline TextBox:
    <asp:TextBox id="tb4" TextMode="multiline" runat="server" />
    Can test the code live here: http://www.w3schools.com/aspnet/show...mo_textbox_ex1

    So maybe you are doing something wrong?

    It does or it doesn't?

    I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.14. Not sure why it wouldn't.

    You may need to add some CSS styling to get that bulletproof across multiple browsers.

    Well I dont have the actual answer, but i came across this. It says that CSS has a word-wrap property, so it will maybe work.
