If you have their ID when you generate the HTML FORM, there is no need for anything as exotic as
Ajax...
//get their $ID
//query the DB using $ID to get $whatever
echo "<TEXTAREA>", htmlentities($whatever), "</TEXTAREA>";
If you don't know their ID until the interact with other form elements, then, yeah, go with
Ajax...
But it would be pretty odd authentication mechanism that a front-end form would "know" my
ID correctly and safely with no server-side interaction!
