&nbsp;Thanks! It works, but it adds the 2nd option after the 1rst one. I would like to have it on the next row.

Hi Experts!<br />
<br />
&nbsp;I have a question realted to a dropdown menu which populates a textfield. I have the following code. The problem is the following: <br />
I have 4 options in the dropdown menu. The textarea must be populated with only 2 selected options. <br />
When I change the option from the dropdown it also changes in the textarea overwritting the previous selected one. I wanted that the first option selected is still there and the 2nd is added after the first one.<br />
How this can be done?<br />
<br />
Thank you in advance!<br />

dropdown menu to populate a textarea

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services using a wide variety of languages and standards, including the familiar HTML, JavaScript and jQuery, ASP and ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion, CSS, PHP, Flex and Flash, but also the implementation of a broad list of standards including XML, WSDL, SSDL, VoiceXML and many more.

Web Languages and Standards

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
