When using javascript to assign a value to a textarea, the textarea's value will instead be reverted to it's default if the textarea is hidden (e.g., inside a div with "display: none", etc.). I will attach an HTML file that includes a form with Javascript for reproducing the bug.

Jamis, thanks for taking the time to file this bug! This works for me testing with a locally-built debug build of WebKit r19028 with Safari 2.0.4 (419.3) on Mac OS X 10.4.8 (8N1037). Therefore closing as RESOLVED/FIXED. Please see Bug 12199 Comment #3 for speculation on when a fixed version of WebKit may be available. You may test other bugs using a nightly build from http://nightly.webkit.org/.
