I'm using the following to set the value of a text area..

<?php
$message = $_REQUEST['message'];
?>
<br/><b>Description</b><br/>
<TEXTAREA NAME="message" COLS=40 ROWS=6 value="<?=$message;?>"></TEXTAREA><br/><br/>
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000" />

but it doesn’t appear to be working. The value of message is not null. Does anyone have any idea why it's not filling the value?

Also you can use this method...

 `<textarea  rows="12" id="mytextarea"><?php echo $bio; ?> </textarea>

  <script>
  document.getElementById(`mytextarea`).innerHTML="Include the text you want to display";
  </script>`
