empty textarea xsl

Have you tried:

  - setting the *output method* to 'html' (which is different from
    setting the media-type to text/html) -- set the method attribute
    of xsl:output to 'html'

  - creating a comment between the two textarea tags:

    <textarea>
      <xsl:comment>prevents the textarea collapsing</xsl:comment>
    </textarea>

Cheers,

Jeni
