RE: Is there a way to maintain formated text
I have had a couple of people rave to me about this one as well: http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/ We use this one with no major complaints. I'm sure FCKeditor is also good, just have yet had the opportunity to play with it yet. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA - | 1 | | - Binary Soduko | | | - "C code.

I have had a couple of people rave to me about this one as well: http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/ I was told that their example online is poor in that it loads up too slow due to all the stuff they are trying to show off in it.

Yes, Aaron was right. I didn't state clearly. I pasted the text into the field and the html and formatted stuff went away.

Ah ok,... well in that case, if it comes from Word, it is not a bad idea to strip "HTML" code ;-) -- ___ REUSE CODE!

Is there a way to maintain formated text
Hi, I am trying to build a program that allows end users to submit short news articles to a database field. The program would serve the text in the field to a cfm page. Sometimes the original text contains formated text such as words in bold, with bullet points, and even with url behind it. When the text goes to the database, they are stripped away. Is there a way to maintain those format and the cfm page can display them well? Any help is appreciated.
