Does anybody know of a plugin that makes the input fields act as an HTML editor? I am passing control of my calendar to my client and they aren't technically savvy enough to add in tags; but without them the text fields strip out paragraph breaks and formatting (bold, italic etc) isn't possible.

I know there is a piece of open source sofftware that can be used to achieve this but unfortunately I lost the reference and in any case not sure I'd know how to do it myself...

Thanks

In reply to my own post, I have found a very good little plugin which does exactly what I want, is open-source, uses Javascript, easy to install/implement/configure and FREE. After installing a load of .js and image files, you just add two bits of javascript to the header and all textareas on the page become WYSIWYG html. Very cool. Go to http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/.

Highly Recommended!

I haven't tried it myself but thanks for the tip!

 One note for users, CalendarScript likely still needs to be configured to allow HTML is event listings.

Dan0...would calendarscript be configured already for HTML if we had been using the old htmlarea?  discussed here: http://www.calendarscript.com/support/forum/Forum5/HTML/000139.html

changes to DBFileUtil.INC, etc...i remember doing all that.  so hopefully this TinyMCE thing i can just plug in.thnx

I would think it would have to be if HTML tags are not being stripped on the event view displays.
