I have a textarea which i don't want to have any carriage returns in. What is the easiest way to prevent the CR?

Thanks.

Using a <input name="" type="text" /> ?

it's going to be really big and i want the text wrap.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

isn't there something with

wrap="off"
wrap="virtual"
wrap="soft"
wrap="physical"

yes. but i don't want the person to actually press the "enter" key which would force a carriage return.

Can you proces the text using a server side script and delete them?

<head>
<title>untitled</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">

function noEnter(e) {
var kC = (e.keyCode) ? e.keyCode : e.which ? e.which : null;
if (kC) return kC != 13;
else return true;
}

</script>
</head>
<body>

<textarea rows="6" cols="32" wrap="virtual" onkeypress="return noEnter(event)">
