Erm, your post doesn't make a great deal of sense - but just to clarify, no you cannot modify the contents of a live textarea from a PHP function for the simple reason that what you want is a CLIENT-SIDE change and PHP is 100% SERVER-SIDE. Try using a JavaScript function to modify a live textarea field. -- Best regards, Richard Davey http://www.phpcommunity.org/wiki/296.html
