Format text in forums (enter, bold,...)

captaffy · February 13, 2009, 7:14pm

I have forums in my web. I have a field in my database in my posts table
that is a textarea.
I would like to save things like press enter or use bold when I write a
message in the forum, but it is not possible only with what an scaffold
gives.
I think there are some javascripts that can help. Which is the best
idea?

Thanks a lot for helping me.

You could try to use tinymce or xinha. these are both WYSIWYG editors.

Look at Textile or Markdown to make it really simple. I think there
might be a javascript editor to add the tags for you, but I would
recommend one of those two for simplicity’s sake.
