I am trying to take a string of text "Comments" push to a MySQL DB and output to another page for viewing. There is one catch I need "rich text" It can be a pre-built Rich Text Editor but it needs to work and I need to know how to transfer that info to the DB. I've got 80% of this down just need to know how to deal with Rich Text or what Editor to use?

By all means if there is another way to do it I would like to hear it. Please help I am stumped and this is the best PHP forum I know.

There are a lot of them out there. Here is a very popular one with a page that tells you exactly how to do it. Then just insert the post var into your database.

Thanks this awesome. It's different from the others I have seen in that it actually uses a text area to hold the data. Other options I have seen do not and they use a lot of Javascript. This is cool I will give it a try tonight Thanks
