How to programmatically add text at the end of textarea

dummy@example.com (nejko15) — Thu, 24 May 2012 13:35:39 +0000

Hello!

I am trying to build a plugin that would add text at the end of the textarea. Let's say the plugin will add: Author: [Authorname]
I would like to make it so that the text is always added at the end of the input.
So even if the user is still writing, I would like to place the Author at the end of what he's writing. I'm currently using:

..... Event that fires the code ....
 tinyMCE.execInstanceCommand("content", "mceInsertContent", false, "
 
 
 Author name: "+author.name+"
 
 
")

This does not add the text at the end. It adds it in front of the content.
Is it possible to place the autor at the end?

Thanks!
