[Buttero]

Hey,

 

I wanna add a new button to this there is already a buttob to press for bold , and italic, i want to add one for paragraph (<p>)

 

here is my current code:

 

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
// global variable for textarea and menubar (i'm lazy, what can i say?)
var ta;
var bar;

function init() {
  // init global variables
  ta = document.getElementById("ta");
  bar = document.getElementById("bar");

  if(ta.selectionStart != undefined) { // has support for DOM2 Ranging in textarea 
    ta.addEventListener("keypress", checkKey, true); // add listener
    bar.style.display = "block"; // unhide the sucker
  } 
}

function checkKey(evt) {
  // debug
  window.status = evt.charCode;

  if (evt.ctrlKey != true) return;
if (evt.shiftKey != true) return;

  // t or 
if(evt.charCode == 116 || evt.charCode == 84) {
    tag('em');
  }

  // b or B  
if(evt.charCode == 66 || evt.charCode == 98) {
    tag('strong');
  }
  
}

function tag(tag) {
  start = ta.selectionStart;
  end = ta.selectionEnd;

  // Split before, sel, after and insert tags in between 
  
  before = (ta.value).substring(0, start);
  sel = (ta.value).substring(start, end);
  after = (ta.value).substring(end, ta.textLength);

  ta.value = before + "<" + tag + ">" + sel + "</" + tag + ">" + after;

  // focus
  ta.focus();
  ta.selectionStart = end + 5 + (tag.length * 2);
  ta.selectionEnd = ta.selectionStart; 
}

//-->
</script>

What's the problem?

add a few lines at the end of your CheckKey() function

 

// b or B ** old code  
if(evt.charCode == 66 || evt.charCode == 98) {
    tag('strong');
  }
// p or P  ** mark paragraph *****
if (evt.charCode == ?? || evt.charCode == ??) { //fill in the ????s
    tag('p');  //should make paragraph tags
}
