i need help making stuff bold in a text area...how could i go about doing that?

<B>**PUT TEXT IN BETWEEN THESE TWO TAGS**</B>

just insert your text in between the two tags lol

that doesn't really work...thats y i'm posting this message...the site (http://www14.brinkster.com/teegee87/main.html)

Try using a DIV instead.... It'll look the same as a textarea, but you can use html in it ^^

<div style="width:#px; height:#px; overflow:auto;">
<b>BOLDED TEXT</b>
</div>

you can use css in your textarea tag like so...

<textarea style="font-weight:bold;">
this is a test
</textarea>

but that would apply to all of the text.

alcy has a good solution if you want only parts of the text to be bolded using the div.
