HTML text box implementation

135 Views Asked by At

What do I need to do to implement a text box in vb.net (like the one I'm typing to post the question in Stackoverflow) where I can type text and format it in bold (for example), but that will appear in 'bold' in the same text box I'm typing?

Thanks

I believe you might be looking for a rich text editor. THere are a number of jQuery plugins that can do this.

It sounds like you're after a WYSIWYG editor, which most of them use an <iframe> to do this.

Have a look at the following:

tinymce
