Subject: [wdvltalk] bold text in INPUTBOX


Hi Websters

This must be easy ! (i'm an ammerture!)

i question from a friend !

i thought it would be easy but not so !

There's a message board on BBC Radio4

( an input box <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="FirstName">)

and he wants to be able to have the text he types bold or different size
etc..
and sometimes he wants to display symbols from microsoft word (in formulas)

but he can't

so i tried the following (html tags) in the input box
(for bold)

<b> thank you <\b>

(for header)

<h1> thank you <\h1>

but when i preview the message i get the whole typed string without the
bold/heading effect ?????

my friend says he's seen other people post messages with bold etc. (and
they're not programmers!)

Thanks in advance
