Yes, I want it in a textarea. My problem was so "obvious" I didn't see
the woods by all the trees. Actually this must be the Murphy of posting
since I found a workable solution in the mean time by the
XMLHttpRequest object. It works great!

(in Dutch but the code is self-explaining)

Your solution is even simpler. But the advantage of the XMLHttpRequest
object is that I can reuse it for different types of request just by
the *.php?requesttype parameter.

It was! Thanks for your reply.

@Drakazz: yes I'm quite aware of the character problem. I had it with
my cookie mechanism. I escape/unescape the string:
JS: result_dds = unescape(unescape(readMyCookie('comm_result_dds')));
PHP: stripslashes and rawurl

Thanx for your reply too!
