User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

When applying a css style (via class, id or style-attribute) to a textarea the
"line-height" attribute is ignored.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a html file with a form including a textarea
2. apply a class with line-height-attribute to textarea


Actual Results:  
Firefox ignores line-height

Expected Results:  
entered text should have the applied line-height

I am not sure if textareas are supposed to support the line-height attribute but
since everthiny else seems to be applied, I think it's just a bug.
this is fixed for Firefox 1.5 (later this year)

Thanks for the quick answer! Sorry for the duplicate but I did a search on all
open bugs for "textarea" and "line-height". 243100 didn't show up because it's
marked as fixed which I didn't consider since I've the latest official release.
Plus the "Target Milestone" (which might have rang a bell) column doesn't show
up on the <a
href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox">Enter A
Bug</a> site if you use the search box in Step 1. Perhaps you could inlcude a
small statement suggesting something like "Do a search on OPEN and CLOSED bugs
since the issue might be already fixed in a future release."
