Has anyone noticed that when you put a textarea into a table with a border, the table border becomes bigger by about 2px? Is there anyway to get around this? Maybe some sort of collapse or something?

Why don't you just disable the border on tables? Or you can specify an exact width for the border on the table with some CSS commands.

After researching the problem a little more it actually has nothing to do with the relationship between the table and the textarea. The issue only shows up when I have scrollbar parameters defined for the body.

Here is a sample:

<HTML>
<STYLE>
.G2{background-color:#F0F0F0; font-family:Arial; font-size:8pt;};
TABLE,TR,TD {border:1px solid black; border-collapse:collapse;};
BODY { scrollbar-shadow-color:#F0F0F0; }
</STYLE>
<BODY>
<TABLE CELLPADDING=3 CELLSPACING=0 BORDER=0>
<TR VALIGN=TOP>
<TD CLASS=G2><FONT STYLE="font-size:8pt; font-weight:700">what?</FONT></TD>
<TD CLASS=G2><TEXTAREA COLS=50 ROWS=10></TEXTAREA></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>


You'll notice that if you take out the textarea, the border displays correctly. If you take out the scrollbar style from the stylesheet, the border displays correctly.

Odd...
