I had a partial view rendered inside a page and it worked fine. Then I introduced a textarea control in that partial view. 

The rest of the page (that should have rendered after this textarea) is rendered INSIDE this textarea, to the extent that all the rest of the page is blank and I can see the HTML that should have rendered in the view as text in this textarea.

This is my Razor:

```
@if (Model == null || (Model != null && String.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.QuoteNo)))
{   
    <div id="mycomments">
    <span>my Comment</span>

     <textarea name="comments" cols="100" rows="10" />
     </div>                                             
}

```

Sorry for my formatting, but this editor doesn't show up html tags otherwise.

This partial view is rendered like this: 

```
 @if (Model == null)
            {
                Html.RenderPartial("_HeaderAndPartsList", Model);
            }

```
