i was wondering if someone could help me, i was wanting to know where i can find out how to make buttons like the ones above the textarea when u make a topic or reply.  the one that says bold, italics, etc.  i know how to add the text at the end of the edit box but i wanted to know how to add it where the cursor is or around the selected text.

i dont need a WYSIWYG editor, i mean when u click on Bold it puts the [ b ][ /b ] in the textarea where u are replying, and if u have sometime selected it puts it around the text.  i was wonder if someone knew how to do that.

That's javascript.

 

<script language="Javascript">
function addBold(){
form.textarea.value += "[b]Your text here[/b]"
}
</script>
<form name="form"><input type="button" value="Bold" onClick="addBold()"><br>
<textarea name="textarea" cols="30" rows="14"></textarea><br><input type="submit">
</form>
