Sorry to ask a silly question like this. I solved this . Here goes the
modified script :
$('#addEmployee').click(function(){
$.ajax({
url: 'searchEmployee.do?method=searchEmployee',
type: 'GET',
data: {employeeId: $('input#emp').val()},
success: function(data) {
if($('textarea#employee_id_textarea').val() ==""){
$('textarea#employee_id_textarea').val(data) ;
}
else {
$('textarea#employee_id_textarea').val($
('textarea#employee_id_textarea').val() +"," +data);
}
$('div#resultEmp').html("").css("padding",0);
$('input#emp').val("");
}
});
Thanks,
Rose
