I currently have a form where I need to provide a textbox area where a user can do basic html formatting (WYSIWYG style). Then when they submit the form, have the processing page get the html source of what they entered. I've played with javascript solutions, but I can't find anything that is cross browser. So I thought I might try to do it in an applet. Is this possible in an applet? If so, would I use a regular textarea class or a jeditpane or what? It's been forever since I did anything with java, but I'd like to get my feet back in the pool with this. Just not sure if I'm on the right track. Any advice?
