WYSIWYG Text Editor

Well, as far as WYSIWYG, I mean applying bold text will make the text in the editor appear bold This is a great option for those who don't mind sacrificing the slow load time for the ease of use. See www.gossamer-threads.com's forum for an example of how a similar editor could be employed.

Features can be removed or added. I wouldn't necessarily want people who use this editor to have more options, just a different display that's easier to visualize than [] tags. However, the justification tags do look like something that could be added easily into vbcode.

I attempted to hack this into vb myself by tinkering with the code and using the replaceTags properties, however adding more than one tag to replace seemed to make IE6 hang.

I posted a message on the developer's web site and haven't seen any responses yet. I'm not sure if he's actively developing this.

It seems very promising though, and any progress you could make would be greatly appreciated. I know there are a lot of people (at least on my forum) who would really like an editor such as this.

Thanks!
Paul
