PrateekSaxena Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Hello ,I need to make a Rich Text Editor for a school project. Now I have no idea whatsoever about the working of these right Text Editors . According to me they are just <TEXTAREAS> whose innerHTML is changed to make stuff RICH. I dont know how the selected stuff is made bold or whatever. Does anyone have any clue how to make something like this. Even a little bit of information would be helpfulas I do not know anything myself .Any help would be highly appreciated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAdam Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 i know they use iframes to project the formatted code .. and that they are known as "WYSIWYG" text editors. try googling WYSIWYG, you'll probably find a tutorial or script you can modify.
