There is nothing tiny about it ;)

References and tutorials on developing rich text editors are rare and extremely difficult to find (I never found one till today). You should check out the open-source rich text editors and try to understand what they do in the sourcecode.

An example of an open-source WYSIWYG editor:
http://nicedit.com/

Try googling though to find the (maybe) one tutorial on the web on this subject? If you found it, feel free to post it below for others (including myself)!

EDIT:

Finally found one: http://www.webreference.com/programming/javascript/gr/column11/

EDIT2:

This one is better: http://www.geekpedia.com/tutorial198_Creating-a-Rich-Text-Editor-using-JavaScript.html

Before I forget, I also decided to make a tiny editor myself after your question with an API etc. (but release date is about two weeks from now ;) ) but before I started my own, I created a tutorial on how to do make a tiny editor (aka a rich text editor). You might want to check it out:
