If you select the text area and use the text() function on it, you'll get a string back. You can do whatever you want with it from there and then just reinsert it again, thats one option at least

Subject: [jQuery] Adding/Removing text on texarea
Hi,
I have a list of text-snippets which should be inserted into a
textarea, separated by a comma. When I click the same text-snipped
again, it should be removed from the textarea.
I managed to to implement the "inserting" with the following code, but
for the removal I have no idea.
$("a.tags2textarea").click(function()
{
$("textarea.txt_tags").append($(this).html()+", ");
return false;
});
Maybe someone can help me.
Best regards,
Johannes
