nowrap styling works in opera and msie but does not in FireFox
this is needed to force user to make hard returns in data entry.
soft returns when autowrapped are not placed in obj.value string 
and worse yet there is no spacing so word analysis becomes strained
Please make sure this css2 style property functions correctly for
the textarea element .... thank you 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set up a textarea element
2. style it with white-space:nowrap
3. see if long sentences do a wrap (BAD) or
bring up a horizontal scroll bar (GOOD)

Actual Results:  
wraps

Expected Results:  
scrollbar and one liner until hard return done
