Hi Bryan, According to this article I can, though I haven't yet got it working myself it seems possible.
http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/javascript/2001/12/21/js_toolbar.html I know the UI functionality comes from JavaScript but everything else is done with CF. So ultimately the user can markup the text in the text area, and I need to save it as rtf. Thanks for any advice Cheers, Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bryan Love" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 1:07 PM Subject: RE: saving textarea input to rtf > ???
