The workaround sort of works. It does display the entire text of the textarea, however there is no wrapping of text, even if I specify a style to explicity wrap the text. The text is enclosed between the following tags.
<span id="MainForm_1_IDcb59982a4c6b421cab617ca21a2578ba" class="NormalTextBox" effieldname="txtComments" style="display:inline-block;">.........</span>
I have tried by checking Wrap on the layout tab (although I think that only applies to the textarea in write mode) and also by specifying style "word-wrap: break-word; white-space: normal;", but it is not working.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks,
