hey gang - Im in a real pickle. I need a very basic text editor for a project.  
All it has to do:  
allow basic formatting - \<b\>, \<i\>, \<u\> and hyperlink - \<a href…  
output the text from the text field as html formatted (i just want to save the text into my dbase and render it back out through flash again)  
i have josh duras component, but i really need something very simple.
