i think there is a bug in how Amaya renders textarea cols= attribute
the width appears to be much too large for the em space of the 
current (default) font.
i am using snapshot 5  in Windows XP
I am submitting a short demo.  Hope others will check and verify 
that this is a bug.

<p>Note how textarea width exceeds the 60 characters specified.
I think the calculation is not using the correct em size. </p>
<textarea cols="60" rows="2" readonly="readonly">
