[PHP-DB] dynamic data manipulation in form

2005-03-18 Thread Doug Finch
I have a script that I have written in PHP that is a basic form that 
inputs simple text into a mysql db.  One section is just a textarea 
value that I would like to be able to add some dynamic formatting to the 
text being entered if the user wants.  For example, I want to give the 
user the ability to be able to highlight the text and click on a 
paragraph tag and it automatically insert that tag - or a bold, itallic, 
underline, etc.  I have searched the web but came up empty-handed.  Any 
ideas?  I don't even know where to begin.
thanks,
Doug

You can add bbcode or for true 'wow 'em' factors, use htmlarea 
(www.htmlarea.com)
