erm...as u said "textarea", wat do u expect u can paste more thing other than "text"? so of coz wording info is entered but those icon and logo will be terminated cause not considered as "text".

So, it's impossible for you to do so. If you're still wan all the info+icon+images can be paste into a textarea, make sure the textarea is "html script on" where you can change the image by writing its url to display such as [img]xxxx.jpg[/img]..like the textarea where forum using...
