Using JavaScript to inject HTML

i have this in my view:

 <div class="grid_12">
<div class="box tabbed news" id="box1">
   <div class="header">
    <h3>
       <%: Model.News.Title %> 
    </h3>
  </div>
  <div class="content" id="newsItem">
    <% Html.RenderPartial("NewsItem", Model); %>
  </div> 
  <div class="clear"></div>
 </div>
 </div> <!-- End of .grid_12 -->

 <div class="clear"></div>
 <table id="table2">

 </table>
 <div class="grid_12">
 <div class="box tabbed news" id="box2">
   <div class="content" id="testdiv">
     <table id="table">
       <tr>
         <td>
           <a href="javascript:ShowReplyTextArea();" class="button">Reply</a>
         </td>
         <td>
           <a href="javascript:ReplyPost(<%: Model.News.NewsId %>);" class="button" id="post_button">Post</a>
         </td>
       </tr>
     </table>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content5" ContentPlaceHolderID="ScriptPlaceHolder" runat="server">
<script type="text/javascript">
 function ShowReplyTextArea() {
   div = document.getElementById('testdiv')
   textArea = document.createElement("textarea");
   textArea.setAttribute('rows', 20);
   textArea.setAttribute('cols', 149);
   textArea.setAttribute('id', "textarea");

   div.appendChild(textArea);
 }

 function ReplyPost(newsId) {
   var message = $("#textarea").text();
   if (message != null)
     $("#post_button").show();
   var jqxhr = $.getJSON("<%= Url.Action("ReplyPost", "Home", new { area = "News" }) %>?newsId=" + newsId + "&message=" + message, function (data) {
   });

   divtext = document.getElementById('table2');
   divtext.setAttribute('text', message);
 }
</script>

when i click on the reply button my text area pops up, i typed in some news and click on the post button. I need to display what i just typed underneath the grid_12 div. the textarea must then be hidden again until i click on reply again

I am struggeling to make this work. can someone help please?

Add some div to display value and use jQuery in MVC3 you can use jQuery out of the box. When you use $("#id") you select item by id, much like getElementById but it is wrapped set of jQuery with which you can do much more than selecting it normally.

new div for displaing

<div id="displayArea"></div>

some jQuery code to put in onClick:

$("#textArea").hide();
$("#displayArea").innerText = $("#textArea").val();
