I don't want to sound rude, but you should really get a clue about HTML and
forms before using something as complex as cURL. "Will it POST my
<textarea> just like a normal <input>" is a question you could have figured
out simply by *trying* it, for God's sake.
You might want to read Eric S. Raymond's informative article "How To Ask
Questions The Smart Way" which you can find at
<http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html>. Here is an excerpt:

I would not go as far and say doing 1 through 4 is enough, but you don't
even do that.
Concerning your <input type="image"> question, this behaves just like a
submit button. If you want to return the coordinates of the mouse click,
image maps are the answer to your problem. None of this has *anything* to
do with cURL. Google is your friend.
