<title>Testing the textarea</title>
<style type="text/css"></style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="validation.js"></script>

<div id="wrapper">
<span id="error_box" style="display:none;"></span>
<form name="storyTeller" method="get" action="#" onSubmit="return validateForm()">
<p class="title">
