Textarea not wide enough

[Sherylj]

I cannot get a textarea box to size itself properly. I want it wide. I've set the column size to many different sizes and it stays the same no matter what I do. What might be causing this? Shouldn't this be a wide box based upon the code below?

<tr>
<td colspan="2"><textarea name="test" rows="5" columns="60"></textarea>

</td>
</tr>

<textarea name="test" rows="5" columns="60" style="width: 1000px"></textarea>
