Michael, I had a similar problem with <script> tags in IE.
Xerces (quite rightly) converts <script src="some.js"></script> to <script src="some.js"/>. This is fine in Mozilla but IE won't accept it. The only solution I found is to be a full-top (period) between the tags, ie: <script src="some.js">.</script> I guess you don't want to have full-stops or other characters appearing between your <textarea> tags. Does anyone have a better solution?

Take this for instance: <tr><td><textareal class="someclass" name="somename"></textarea></td></tr> The above will be parsed as: <tr><td><textareal class="someclass" name="somename"/></td></tr> Guess what! I.E.6 displays this af a textarea with the </td></tr> as content inside. My question is, how do I make the parser understand to leave tags the way they are without parsing to empty tags? I use the org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser.
