  15.    That's true. RenderTextBox is what's used in Hello part. The point is that
  16.    it doesn't work as stated.
  17.  
  18.    Try my example with the standard Hello part, here it is again:
  19.  
  20.    Drag&Drop the following in Hello part:
  21.  
  22.      Line1
  23.      Line2
  24.      Line3
  25.  
  26.    You'll see that RenderTextBox() displays the following:
  27.  
  28.      Line1Line2Line3
  29.  
  30.    Mary claims that it works correctly. My experience is that it does
  31.    not - it ignores \r's.
  32.  
  33.    Either I'm crazy, or I've got a different RenderTextBox() than
  34.    Mary.
