><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
it would definitely be better in the css file. i'd do something like this:
textarea {
overflow: auto;
}
this has the advantage of applying this wrapping to all your textareas
resulting in consistency on your site.

i'd definitely leave rows and cols in there for non-css browsers. test it
and see if you need to specify the height and width for the overflow to
work.
