Submitted form not displaying scrolling text box info

submitted form from website not displaying text entered by visitor when form
is submitted. attempted to copy and paste working scrolling text box from
another form on website but unsuccessful.
 
I see nothing wrong with the form, and all information entered for a
test appeared correctly on the confirmation page, except the addresses
appeared as a single line, instead of multi-lines.
Example:
590 my street
my town
my county
xx3 7qq

appeared in the confirmation page as:

590 my street my town my county xx3 7qq


However, this is normal. To get a multi-line result requires a custom
confirmation page to be made.
The email you receive should be correctly formatted.


One change to consider: Is it necessary to email the agreement text?
This could be placed in a scrollable div rather than a text box, then
you would not receive it in the email.

Thank you for your help! I'll have to research the "scrollable div". I'm
not that frontpage savvy. Thanks for your assistance.
 
Sample scrolling <div> (using inline styles):

<div style="border: 1px solid red; background: #ffff00; width: 490px;
margin: 10px auto; height: 200px; overflow: auto;">
Contents go here
</div>

This will produce a box with a thin red border and yellow background,
490px wide by 200px high. The box will be centred in the space it is
placed in (table cell, etc.). Scroll bars will be produced if the
contents is too large for the box. Change the dimensions and colours to
suit your design and layout.
