Description:
------------
When editing user notes on the PHP site via the popup through Master, closing </textarea> tags typed in by the note contributors close out the actual textarea in the form.  This causes the remaining code to flow over into parsed HTML below the editable textarea.

Not a major XSS problem (since login is required to get here) but a real problem nevertheless. clean() has been implemented so the textarea should be fine now.
