button to open a textarea

Im a dhtml newbie, and am wondering if anyone knows where I might find an
example of, say, clicking a button or link, which then opens an editable
textarea.

Thank you, Ike

For my part, I'd put the textarea on the page inside a div with
display='none', then display it when the button is clicked. Trying to
create it at "run-time" would be a pain.

Untested:

<form>
<textarea name="mytextarea" id="mytextarea"
style="display:none;"></textarea>
<input type="button" name="mybutton" value="open"
onclick="document.getElementById('mytextarea').sty le.display='block'">
</form>

This will exclude user who turned off javascript.
