The only problem in doing so, for me at least, is in editing text created by htmlarea. Nonsupported users who get a normal textarea pre-loaded with html generated by htmlarea could break tags, etc., on updates. I wrote a class I use to work around this by: determining which type of textarea they'll get (wysiwyg htmlarea or plain textarea), and if they're using a plain textarea and editing html, all html except for bold, italics and underline tags are replaced with markers. The plain textarea user then can add standard bb style tags, [b], [i], etc., then on submit the bb tags will be converted to html, and the original html will be added back in, properly nested, etc. If you'd like to use it, I'd be happy to email it. I'm sure it could use a few extra sets of eyes. Andy
