Topic: How to programmatically add text at the end of textarea

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, "<div style='width: 100%;'><br /> <br /> <hr /> <h3 align='center'>Author name: "+author.name+"</h3> <br /> <br /></div>")

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!

tinymce.activeEditor.getBody().appendChild(tinymce.activeEditor.dom.create('div', {}, '<b>HELLO</b>'));
