Adding a Text Editor to Ebase Textarea field

It is possible to add a Text Editor to an Ebase form textarea field.

Using TinyMCE as an example, download the library from their website:
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/

TinyMCE is a platform independent web based Javascript HTML WYSIWYG editor control released as Open Source under LGPL by Moxiecode Systems AB. It has the ability to convert HTML TEXTAREA fields or other HTML elements to editor instances.

Simply install the JavaScript files on the server and reference them in your form. When you run the form it will apply the text editor controls to your textareas. The editor controls are also completly configurable.

Since the textareas are your Ebase form fields, they will still behave as expected with field properties and control properties.
