Havok823i Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hi all!!! I could really use some help. I'm burning my brain out trying to figure out the easiest way to go about this. Here is what I am trying to do (in a nutshell) so I could really use full coding examples. I need to create a text area with simple formatting tools such as Bold, Italics, Underline, Bullets, and Numbering. After formatting the text with only those available formatting tools, everything in the text area needs to be converted into html tags. After the conversion, the HTML data that is create is submitted into a single field into a SQL database. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

spiderwell Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 CKEDitor is also a great tool for this, it has many more functions but you can set the toolbar to do just the things you mentioned you Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/233108-submit-and-convert-textarea-into-html-and-insert-into-sql-table/#findComment-1199036 Share on other sites More sharing options...
