I have made a content managment system and I am using basic input text boxes to input text into my database and allowed html to be read in the reading part of the CMS. So what I am wanting to know how to do is create a button that would insert say a bold tag into my input box. so that when the user is doing an update and wants to make a specific section bold or add a picture he could click on a button like \<img src\> and that would insert \<img src=""\> something like that or \<b\>\</b\> just makes it a bit easier. How would I be able to acheive something like this using buttons?
