    Default Removing carriage returns from <textarea></textarea> input

    Hiya,

    I have a form with a <textarea></textarea> to receive user input.

    This input is then stored in a database and sent by fax...

    I need to be able to remove the carriage returns (enter key... vbcrlf...)
    from the input so that somebody doesn't do something like fill the textarea
    with 100s of keypresses of the enter key and end up spitting out tonnes of
    blank pages on the fax machine

    thanks,

    Clint
