you really shouldn't be dragging anything. you just make a form, set your
text area configure it etc. and follow the directions which consist of
putting a block of code in the head of the page and a little near the
textarea where you tell it the name of the element to replace (the name of
the text area) there isn't really anything in the "normal" view to do.

area to show up in a form! If I move the area outside of a form. It works
perfectly and beautifully. BUT if I drag it inside a form, the area
disapears and when you load the page, nothing shows up, not even a text box.
Any suggestions on that?
