From the page style: textarea { font-family: monaco, courier, monospace; width: 500px; ... } Web designing mistake, wrong choice of units. Depending on user's choice of font width, text will wrap inside the text area and not produce the expected result. 'width: 40em' would be a lot more sensible and produce the expected results.
