A web page that lets a user edit HTML

I'm trying to build a content management system and need to build a text composer on a web page (sort of like the composer I'm using to write this message). It needs to be able to allow the user to change the font to bold and italic. The problem with the editor here in VB Q and A is it's slightly crude: you can't highlight the text you want to bold, plus it sticks the 'tags' right into the text (I'd rather see it make the visible change than see the tags). Now hotmail does exactly this when you are in compose mode and you choose rich-text format, but I think it's all ActiveX and I wouldn't want to steal the whole thing, just some of the features.

Any ideas? I'd be interested in seeing sites that have examples, or better yet, tutorials.

Thx

Guys, I used the editor above. Its just great.

Now, One Q. - How do I get the typed sentences posted on another page so that I can save it in database.

That is, If I allow user to enter text in it, then he use all the formatting he wants and save it in his profile. How do I do this?(Not the database partr - just the form - posting thing.)

Well, I found the answer!!!.

Bye.
