How are the selected values displayed in second php.
If they are in test boxes as part of another form then you can read the POST variables in third php.
If not you could pass the values as hidden variables or even URL variables from second to third.

and then
[php]
<textarea>
<?php echo $_variable_name;?>
</textarea>
[/php]
