Title: Fix IE 8 textarea scrolling weirdness

There are two bugs here:

1. Cursor jumping over the place when starting to type.
This was caused by the width being 100%. In IE8 there is a bug where
it can't work out where you have clicked if the height is a
percentage width
2. Scroll moving when typing.
If the width of the textarea is defined in css to be larger than that
of the cols attribute on the element then the cursor will sometimes
scroll to the bottom of the box while you type.
