Ok, I check the htmlarea3 site and I have to admit that it is impressive, 
but, maybe overkill. Also, it only works on IE and Mozilla version X and 
up... and to top it all off under BSD license...
I meant something simple like phpBB that only uses standard features. A way 
to turn of JavaScript should be somewhere in the users profile. But, you 
don't need the javascript part to edit with phpBB, that's just to make your 
life simpler. That way I could use Opera/Camino/Konqueror/Netscape 3/4/6/7 
and others from any computer without worrying about having different 
interfaces to edit the text.
Just my opinion. I respect people who would use htmlArea -- maybe they come 
from a Windows background and that interface is intuitive for them; however, 
for the majority of us, I think that interface is overkill -- bloated.
