title: how to align text in textarea in html
body: <p>I have a <code>textarea</code> and I am also writing some PHP code to prefill the <code>textarea</code> upon refresh. The "prefill" part is working fine. </p>
  
  <p>My problem is when I start to type in the <code>textarea</code>, the text is not left aligned. It is starting at some random point in the <code>textarea</code> box. I want it left aligned like a normal text box. </p>
  
  <p>Here is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;TEXTAREA rows = 10 cols = 95 name = answer5&gt;
  &lt;?php echo stripslashes(htmlentities($_POST['answer5'])); ?&gt;
  &lt;/TEXTAREA&gt;
  </code></pre>
