Try this, since you are using (based on jcwren's link, an IE3 specific syntax with <input type="textarea">

<textarea wrap=physical></texarea>

perl -p -e "s/(?:\w);([st])/'\$1/mg"

    The HTML actually sends all the textboxes' newlines nicely, no matter what kind of wrap you are using.
    The problem is CGI.pm turns the %0A%0D into a single space, no matter how many newlines it encounters in a row. That my problem!
