    copied!<p>Time to throw my $0.02 in. </p> <p>This is an answer to the question, as I understood it, that works, it's quick and dirty, so feel free to make suggestions. This code is untested, but I did create a working fiddle here: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/66RXc/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/66RXc/</a></p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;Testing&lt;/title&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; &lt;!-- function call(val) { document.getElementById('result').value += val.charAt(val.length - 1); document.getElementById('result').value = document.getElementById('result').value.substr(0, val.length); document.getElementById('test').value = document.getElementById('test').value.replace(/[^\^]/g, ' '); }​ --&gt; &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;textarea name="textarea" cols="20" rows="5" id="test" onKeyUp="call(this.value);"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt; &lt;textarea style="display:block" cols="20" rows="5" id="result" disabled&gt; &lt;/textarea&gt;​ &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>The way I approached it was every time a character is typed in textarea "test", copy it over to a hidden text box, and replace all the characters in "test" except ^ with spaces. The characters are hidden, and the carat is still there. The full text is still in the other box. You could use display:hidden instead of display:block to hide it. </p> <p>This isn't exactly the best implementation in the world, just something I did quickly. You have to type kind of slow (~15-20 WPM) for it to work. </p>
