I have a text area and when the user clicks a button say something like insert an image button the user selects the image to be uploaded and then i would like to add this image to the text area and the user can continue editing the text area, just like what orkut does. How do we achieve such functionality?

You can’t display an image directly inside a textarea control.
The closes you can get is overlay an image on it, but it will not be part of the information in the textarea. That is, text will not flow around it and when posting the form it will not be included in the data for the textarea.
Perhaps a writable div (content editable) would suit your purposes better.
