[Portfolio] Form not rendering textarea correctly on one instance of Sakai 2.9

[Noah Botimer]

No caching changes that I'm aware of. There are locks on files explicitly referenced as renderers, but if you've verified the changes were applied to the file, they should be effective immediately.

Thanks,

Double check the output format for the stylesheet vs. the stock formCreate.xslt. The creation renderer will take precedence over formFieldTemplate.xslt for the output settings.
