I have the text-based version of emacs installed, and when I try to open a textarea from Google Chrome, it gives the error

error in process filter: Don't know how to create a frame on window system x

However, emacs is creating buffers for the textareas. I'm probably doing something wrong; I'm not sure how to fix this problem.

I'm using Emacs 24 on Mac OS X.

Have you tried:

(setq edit-server-new-frame nil)

To prevent the creation of new frames?

I've solved the problem now, I had just set it up wrong.
