So I have the usual ASP.NET form, the same as yahoo’s compose email screen minus the function of changing the font and font size, I will only allow the user to set the text to bold, italics and underline together with its short cut keys and usual functions cut and paste Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V plus the changing of font colors and adding hyperlinks.

I have completed the form layout. As like other faq's ive seen in this site, MSDN says I need to place a CONTENTEDITABLE = ”True” for the elements I want to be editable. But i will have two different text areas that will be affected by the buttons for bold, italics and underline, one for questions and one for comments. Upon writing the CONTENTEDITABLE = ”true ” for my textAreaQuestions, the intellisense says "Could not find any attribute 'contentEditable' of element 'body'.

My controls (bold, italics, etc.) should be a .ascx because it will be used in 3 different pages with the same number of editable regions.
Im kinda new on developing ASP.NET applications... and im really lost here. i hope you guys can help me on starting this. thanks.
