[Xitami] 2 questions

[Sara]

I am trying to have my perl cgi script which takes input from the user
and outputs it back to the user output comments with text not being
typed off the page when the user types in a lot of characters in the
comments box.  I cannot control this problem using html in my perl
script.  I need the

Use:Text:wrap

function

I went to the documentation for perl and it gives 3 examples, but I
tried all and can't get it to work.  I just want to have the output text
wrap so text does not go off the page.
