RE: [PHP] Re: rich text editing
The only problem in doing so, for me at least, is in editing text created by htmlarea. Nonsupported users who get a normal textarea pre-loaded with html generated by htmlarea could break tags, etc., on updates. I wrote a class I use to work around this by: determining which type of textarea they'll get (wysiwyg htmlarea or plain textarea), and if they're using a plain textarea and editing html, all html except for bold, italics and underline tags are replaced with markers. The plain textarea user then can add standard bb style tags, [b], [i], etc., then on submit the bb tags will be converted to html, and the original html will be added back in, properly nested, etc. If you'd like to use it, I'd be happy to email it. I'm sure it could use a few extra sets of eyes.

Re: [PHP] Re: rich text editing
hi all i've been playing around with the 3.0 beta version of html area. it seems really nice. (thank you also btw, for the advice about the rtf tags...). the problem with html area is - it works great on ie and moz, but when you try to look at html area on a nonsupported browser -say, IE for mac - it doesn't work at all. we have mostly IE 5+ users using this app, but there are a number of mac users. what do people generally do when using an activex rich text editor and the user is using a non supported browser? thanks redmond [Thu, Aug 21, 2003 at 03:20:00PM +0200] This one time, at band camp, Marek Kilimajer said: Tan Ai Leen wrote: You can also use dhtml/js to code a html editor.
