There was Features missing in Version 2.0 & 1.0, This is Fixed

=== WHAT IT IS ===

Don't you hate it when you have to edit HTML tags by hand for your osCommerce Descriptions?
The worst being the paragraphs. Everytime you want to seperate your paragraphs, you have
to type <BR> or <P></P> tags.

NOT ANYMORE!!

By installing a few files and inserting just a couple lines of code, you can have
a simple HTML editor for your osCommerce Descriptions.



=== FEATURES ===

You will see a new toolbar just above the Description box. The new features work by either
selecting some text or just by clicking within the Description box and picking a function.

B - Bold
Adds the <B></B> tags to a selection or just where you click.

I - Italic
Adds the <I></I> tags to a selection or just where you click.

U - Underline
Adds the <U></U> tags to a selection or just where you click.

Horizontal Rule
Adds the <HR> tag to where you click.

Center
Adds the <CENTER></CENTER> tags to a selection or where you click.

auto breaks
The coolest feature automatically adds <BR> tags to the entire Description without
having to insert them yourself. So now you don't have to worry about formatting your
descriptions so that paragraphs come out okay. Just hit ENTER as many times as you want
to put as many lines between paragraphs and then click the button.

strip html
Automatically strips all HTML tags from the Description. Good for "starting over."

link
Adds a link to a URL by either just clicking in the Description, or selecting some text.



=== REQUIREMENTS ===

I only made this using osCommerce 2.2 and Internet Exploder 5. I have no clue if
it will work with other versions. Let me know if it does!

Don't you have having to edit html by hand for your Product Descriptions? Me too.

Here is a handy HTML editor for your Product Descriptions. Install this and you will have a new toolbar above the Description field. Select some text and then click. Instant HTML!

Best features are:

Instant linebreaks. Write the description like normal, click a button, and you have break tags seperating each paragraph.

Clear tags. Click a button to clear all html tags instantly.

Instant links. Click a button to insert a link to a URL automatically.

I tested this with osCommerce 2.2 and IE 5. I don't know if it will work with other versions. But with a little tweaking, it should.
