[jQuery] Textarea


Hi Im trying to retrieve the contents of a text area using
$("#emailsend").click(
function(sendmail)
{
var address=$("#sendmailad").text();
var messagetext=$("#message").text();
alert(messagetext);
where #message is the text area. All i get is the initial contents of the
area, not the revised contents.
Any ideas?
