If the TextareaTag.java (html:textarea tag) is used all of the html tags under 
the closing textarea tag are erased.  It appears that a closing html tag
(</html>) is being inserted after the closing textarea tag (this is just an 
assumption).  To resolve the problem I had to use a plain html <textarea> tag.

Even though the code in textareatag.java appears to append a closing text area 
tag(</textarea>) to an existing textarea, a closing tag should still be 
inserted with the <html:textarea> tag (ie. </html.textarea>).  I am not sure if 
this is a bug in the code or if it indeed working as expected.
