Off-hand, I don't think there is one. The "wrap" attribute is not
valid under HTML 4.x, although both IE and Netscape support it. But AFAIK a
softwrap is the default in most (all?) browsers, anyway.
If you are wanting to remove carriage returns altogether, I suggest
that you use a server-side script to scrub your value of unwanted
characters.
