putting selected text in textarea i a string

Is it possible to change selected text in a textarea without using java and
only php or html.

There are lots of solutions in a javascript but i would like to try it
without. If it is possible to place the in a textarea selected text in the
return of a function i like to believe is can be done. So how kan i put
selected text in a string.

Negative for PHP. PHP is a server-side language -- you cannot have the
client's computer run PHP. I doubt it for HTML -- but then again that's not
my specialty (if you're wondering how I do PHP without HTML, it's simple. I
have someone else write the HTML -- actually XHTML -- and then I code in
the PHP into it ^_^ )
