Selection Editing [Hey Raz]

Hey Raz

How come the markup thingies dont work like on some other boards? What I mean is, on some boards you type in what you want, highlight, and then hit the B for bold and it automatically puts the tags around the highlighted section? Is this a VB thing, or is it the way you have it set?

It wasn't designed in.

Not sure anyone really uses formatting here.

That would actually be very handy for me when posting RP rules and the like. Not a major requirement for the boards, I know...

I've got it working for IE, but Firefox is being a pain about it.

What's up with all the "Hey Raz" Threads anyways. Is that some sort og "I-am-to-good-tomake-my-topic-clear" Bullshit? I am pretty positive that Raz reads the threads in this Section anyways.

Unfortunately Firefox makes extracting selected text much more complex than IE.

If someone has the time, please find a way to get selected text from a <textarea> element into a JavaScript variable. This page might be a good starting point. Also, feel free to go through the current JavaScript code here.

Javascript?

I'll take a look though I can't promise I'll be able to do anything, as javascript is something I've only dabbled in and don't use too often, and therefore, don't really know.

For Firefox users, install this extension. Just highlight the text with a right click find the function you want. It's faster than typing out all the BBCode and it makes it so Raz doesn't have to install a new script right away.
