I use jwysiwyg, jQuery editor for basic html inserts. Simple and very very light. Odds are you do not need images and flash tables lists colors, various overloaded options for comments. Also remember you need to clean HTML data to prevent users from dropping in their own tags / scripts for example and simply destroy your site. Echo h() is pointless if your wanting styled html to display. Your going to need to allow certain html tags and attributes and remove everything else.
