Hi,

Does anyone kno where I can get basic Wysiwyg, All I want is Bold, Italic, Left Align, Right Align, Center really so I can add to text box as it does here at devnet when posting in threads so html can be easily added then I will run it thru BBcode.

Thanks

If you're running bbcode, you could just add the bbtags for it. [b], [i], [left], [right], [center],

Hi,

Yer I could, but it is for an application within an admin panel for client .. It would be much simpler for them to control it via a simlar system as when you post in devnet.

The once I have seen are way to complex for the basuc functions needed.


Thanks

We don't use a wysiwyg text box, so I'm not sure what you're thinking we have.

Maybe I have the name wrong ..

But the same system where above the text box when adding or editing a record like here you see the buttons to add tags around text to make them bold, italic etc.

Like u highlight the word and bress the B above the text box and you get word set around the word .. or something like TinyMCE that has those functions, but more of a web page editor when I just whant a few basic function/buttons


Thanks

if you want what phpbb uses, look at the posting page's code. It's all there for you to see.

I assume there is javascript involved?


Thanks

A couple of basic but good ones:
Simpletexteditor from Cezary Tomczak
Quicktags from Alex King (uses regular html tags, and is fully customisable)
and the one I like a lot:
widgeditor from Cameron Adams

Thanks Matthijs,

Simpletexteditor has the look im after but the code thats output can get messy I noticed

widgeditor outputs nice clean code, but the buttons etc arnt very nice looking


Thanks for the sites, thats what I was after


Cheers

for a quick, simple wysiwyg editor, i can't recomment widgeditor enough... I was going to use it for my in-house CMS, but the feature set of FCKeditor was way too far ahead of widg to make it worthwhile... I may have some redesigned icons for widg somewhere on my hdd, If you'd like then i can hunt around...

Found 'em!

I second the vote on TinyMCE it outputs pretty reasonable code for a WYSIWYG.

RTE is a very simple wysiwyg. http://www.kevinroth.com/rte/demo.htm
