If youhave several buttons that update text in the same <textbox/> then have
the buttons call the
same styleInput() method. Obvisouly, the buttons can't use |this| as the
argument to styleInput().
They need to use document.getElementById("tb") as the argument. By the way, I
didn't mean to write
tb.setStyle(). I meant to write tb.setAttribute("style", ...). You could also
use
tb.style['font-weight'] or tb.style.fontWeight (note: untested).
