Hello

Hey all,
what I want to know is how to "add a new word" into a textarea after clicking on an icon, similar to this on SEN while you are posting a reply, you click on a smilie and codes like :hurr : will appear at the text end?
I'm pretty sure it's done with javascript. Please reply with an example-code + explanation.

EDIT: The same with the color like on SEN here, like at the beginning and at the end of a selected text-part?

Thanks in advance.

It's done using JavaScript, which is actually completely different from Java.

I'm a little too lazy to give an in-depth tutorial, but basically you add an onClick action (<img ... onClick="addSmileyText(':hurr:')"> or something) and then you find the component you want to edit on the page and do .value += text.

Here's a tutorial on pretty much the same thing: http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/javascript/form/add-text.html




None.

Hello

Thanks, on the first view it looks promising, also I knew it was java-script (I don't even know the language java [never took a look at it])
