It seems that Mozilla is building it's own editor. I suppose that's a
WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) web-based editor.
Quote:The Mozilla editor provides HTML and plain text editing functionality in Gecko-based applications.
This is a good thing to FireFox and other gecko-based browser... BUT, what about IE and Opera ?? They aren't gecko-based. Does that means that they will not be able to use it ?? hmm ??
I've seen a few WYSIWYG but most of them are pretty buggy. They all consist of "complicated and sophisticated" things (codes, lol) in it, but they have the problems of cross-browser-compatibility.
Anyway, aren't those WYSIWYG editor and BBCode tags exists solely for one purpose ? To make lazy people's life easier =)
Visit the
Mozilla Editor and the
live demo (Note: I got a feeling the demo page is out-dated).

If you want to test whether your web browser support this function, simple copy the following code, save it as an HTML file, and browse it.
<html>
<head>
<title>Simple Editor</title>
</head>
<body>
<iframe name="Editor">
</iframe>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("Editor").contentWindow.document.designMode="On"
</script>
</body>
</html>
