Hi All. Great site.
I like the way it all works, and it looks like you all have put some serious effort into all of it, so I'm almost reluctant to ask the following question as it may be seen as a criticism (which it is not).

Howabout some buttons that insert various html tags into the edit box. Im sure this can be done quite easily with a bit of client side javascript.

A button for line break, code and a couple of the other common tags would be really nice, especially for those of us with CTS for whom typing HTML tags causes pain...

Well, once again great site, thanks to the sysops...
