    Default Saving text

    How can I have a textarea that you can change the text within it and click a save link so the text is still there when you come back to it? Like a notepad where you can place notes for future reference. This would be somewhat useful.
    Thanks.

    Basically, you'll need to allow editing of previously submitted data. The Save button (you shouldn't use a link) will submit the input so far and mark it as unfinished. When the user returns later, you present the form again with what was entered previously. When the user finally submits the form (using a different button), the entry is marked as complete and won't be displayed any more.
