Hi! How do i add "extras" to comment boxes like is done in the comment box, which you will use to reply this post? You know, the "change font color" icon, "bold", "italics", etc...

i checked daniweb's source code and i saw <script> tags and an array within a variable containing the font types. Is there a particular name for this type of comment box?

Thanks

Yes, it's called a WYSIWYG (What-you-see-is-what-you-get) editor. Here is one which you can use for your site.

Thanks! I would have never guessed that was the name...
