Html formatting etc.

Hi,

I have a question that maybe someone can help me with?

I have a html textarea. I want to make a menu bar for it. This menu
bar should add <p<i<betc... tags to highlighted text. Plus
closing tags.

I am not the best at javascript and was hopeing someone may be able to
help me?
I have searched but haven't found anything yet. I did find "TinyMCE "
etc but I don't need most of it's functionallity.

Any help would be greatly aprechiated.
Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,
Mickey

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I've seen this, however it's a lot more than I need.
I just basically need to wrap <b></b>'s etc... around selected text.
So a simple button would suffice.

Thanks again for the help.

In reply to myself, I found this:
http://www.javascriptsearch.com/scri...g_creator.html

This is almost what I need, except, I need to be able to select text
within the text area and for example, click a <Bbutton and have the
highlighted text be surrounded by: <Bhighlighted text </B>..

Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

Take a look here: <URL:http://jsfromhell.com/forms/selection:]

Getting the caret coordinates and the selected text (when the selection
has just empty blank lines, it returns an empty string...) is
problematic with under IE when using <textarea>'s, I've made some dirty
fixes to get the expected results :(
