I want to have a form to insert/update the database, but I also want the users to be able to check their spelling and format their text before inserting/updating the database. I saw what I was looking for in Hotmail with IE. Can someone tell me how it is done?

Hello TCninja,

What you are looking to do requires some advanced scripting (spellchecker), the rich-text editor is can be done using javascript or an IE scriplet.

A tutorial for creating a Hotmail/Yahoo type rich text editor can be found here [codeproject.com] Though you still need to add spell-checker functionality.

Hi papapbaer,

Thanks. That was exactly what I was looking for. I'm probably going to have to pay for a spell checker program because I'm not that good at programming.
