Challenge: Accept textarea input in the form of 'key, count', and then sum up the total count for each key and display the output.

For these two questions please provide strictly client-side solutions.

1. Key Counts

Create an html page with a text-area and a button to sum up key counts in the text area. Each line of the text area is expected to contain data in the format of 'key, count' where the count is parse-able into an integer. The text area should have the following default value:

'John,2

Jane,3

John,4

Jane,5'

When the button is pressed the results of the summation should be displayed.

The default value should result in the output: 'The total for John is 6. The total for Jane is 8.'
