ok something like this

a form made on php that write to a txt
this form have 2 text areas, 1 for title 1 for main text
I have set it up so it parse html tags
if i put by hand for ex <b > </b > i got a bold etc etc etc
I want to make a menu so this tags are more easy to insert

For ex.

menu: bold underline link

if you click on bold it promp a window to put a text and it will then insert that text into the text area with the open and close bold tags

EX 2

menu: B I U ..... CLOSE CURRENT TAG
