Hello:
I'm trying to create a form for a user so they can update their web page. The page is a newsletter.

The user would like the ability to format the text that she is typing into the form so the result on the web page is appealing.

In order to accomplish this I need a toolbar consisting of: bold, italic, underline, font name, font size, font color, etc.

How do I go about trying to code this toolbar? Can anyone help me out?

Thank you in advance.
