Clear textarea fields when selected

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 06.2006

I want to have it so that when a user selects a textarea on my form it clears the text that is in it. So either when they tab down to it or if they click it directly. Can someone give me an indication of how to code this?

Thanks very much, Tommy1987..
