How are you closing your textarea tag? _EVERY_ character in between the 
tags will translate into characters in the textarea itself. So, if 
you're doing this:

    <textarea ...>
    </textarea>

Then the extra carriage return and spaces will appear in your text area. 
But if you do this:

    <textarea ...></textarea>

you should be okay. Close the tag immediately.
