Hi Ausum,

Do you mean a text field that shows a row of formatting buttons at the top for 'bold', 'italic' 'add link' etc.

There is an ActiveX control that is built in to IE Explorer 5.x - you just have to call it from your page.

Here's the information from Microsoft:

If you get it working with Zope (which shouldn't be a problem) let us know.

There was a start at a product doing this (called ZIE) by Johan Carlsson , but it looks like it was aborted quite some time ago. Dont know about its status. You could try how far it would get you, tho see: http://www.zope.org/Members/johanc/ZIE hth Rik
