Rails - May 2005 - text_area attribute 'wrap'

I have the doctype for XHTML Transitional in my pages, but text_area()
seems to generate a <textarea> tag with the wrap attribute set to
''virtual'' by default, causing the page not to validate.
Validation
isn''t really that important to me, but I would like to know if it is
possible to set attributes to not be shown (unset) when passing them
to the HTML generation functions.

I have tried adding wrap => nil, but that was interpreted as
wrap="",
and I cannot think of anything else to try.

Sincerely,

Tom Reinhart

There''s a few non-validating relics left in ActionView helpers. Just 
submit a ticket to Rails Trac, I don''t think you can work around this 
since the whole wrap attribute is invalid.
