Just a little more...

I just want to update the textarea, not the table.
This is all happening before the project is actually created.

- new.html.erb -

<td><%= f.label :comments, "Notes/Comments", {:tabIndex => 6}%><br />
    <%= link_to_function('Comments Window', 
'viewDialog("Notes/Comments")') %>
</td>
