title: Hide HTML tags in text area
body: <p>I have a scenario where I use autocomplete jquery UI with textarea. Every time user selects a value from suggestion, textarea is populated with selection followed by a semicolon.</p>
  
  <p>I need to keep track of id's for selected values from the suggestion. My idea was to have them in data attributes of a span tag,wrap selected values in it and populate the textarea.But now textarea is displaying these HTML tags.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions on what should be done?</p>
