Wordpress: How to keep reply/comment box open by default

I would like the reply textarea to be visible all the time, not just when the user clicks the comments link (generated by comments_popup_link).

I have googled this and drawn a blank - 1 post advised using comments_template() instead of comments_popup_link but that doesn't work. It seems like it should be straightforward but I can't figure it out - can someone help?

Thanks!

Try using comment_form(); instead of comments_popup_link();.

Thanks aendrew for your help - finally the code I used to get my comments functionality working was:

$withcomments = true; comments_template();
