$("[EMAIL PROTECTED]").each(function(i){
this.append("<textarea name='" + this.attr("name") + "'>" + this.val()
+ "</textarea>").remove()
})
is a bit shorter... and throwing the remove at the end of the chain
will save you a small fraction of a millisecond!
I just took Glen's code and shortened it. I've used the append and
remove before.
