I'm thinking about doing something along the lines of this (click to edit part of the page. Or maybe I could do it as select the text you want to edit then press a key), but add rich editing instead of just the plain textarea. |
That would be nice (just having to set a single attribute); actually, though, the one I suggested in the edit I made to the thread mentioned above will go through every textarea (or other element that you choose) and convert it to be fancy automatically. It also doesn't require mucking around with setting Javascript things up on each of the forms you want to use for onclick, etc. I'm actually surprised that it's so transparent. (If you download it and look at the simple demo, which has a lot less HTML, etc. confusing things, it becomes obvious how things work, and easy to move up to the advanced one).
