Patch for moin/ie6 textarea problem

Moin has a problem with its textarea under IE6. Any theme that uses
sidebars, i.e. rightsidebar will show the symptom that when you edit a page,
the textarea will resize itself as soon as you enter some text into it. This
means that the text area will extend under the side bar and you can't see
what your editing. 

This can be fixed by putting a fieldset tag immediately after the form tag
(which contains the textarea).

So in PageEdit.py

 replace on line 293
 	  # send form
        self.request.write('<form method="post" action="%s/%s#preview">' % (
            self.request.getScriptname(),
            wikiutil.quoteWikiname(self.page_name),
            ))
 with 
	  # send form
        self.request.write('<form method="post" action="%s/%s#preview">' % (
            self.request.getScriptname(),
            wikiutil.quoteWikiname(self.page_name),
            ))

        # patch to fix ie6 bug with textarea
        self.request.write('<fieldset style="border:none;padding:0;">') 

 replace on line 392 
        self.request.write("</form>")
 with 
        # patch to fix ie6 bug with textarea
        self.request.write("</fieldset>")
        self.request.write("</form>")


Further info about this issue can be found at

rightsidebar and my own theme on ie6 and firefox.

All best
