Hi, i am trying to create a form that can be used to fill in and send news to a database. I think i am sussing out all the php mysql stuff, but i really want to create some phpBB style features. For example, i would like the user to be able to click a “bold” button which would open a window to enter the text to be formatted bold. The same for underline, link and mailto. Thats it.
I have tried to find examples, using substring methods and such. And i expect using html formatting would be a good place to start, but i can’t think of how to get it to do it. If you’ve posted anything with a bold piece of text or a link, you’ll see how the functions of the Bold, Underline stuff work.
That’s what i want to create for a flash form.
I can then send the formatted news, to the database from where it is subsequently put into the news page textField.
Any ideas? Really anything would be very helpful.
