DHTML Editing Component

[BenRussell]

In Internet Explorer 5.5+ it has the ability to make a "rich text editor" (by using the execCommand(); command, it lets you bold text, underline it, insert images, etc.). However, I was wondering how I can insert a table? What is the execCommand() value for it? I tried 'inserttable' and it didnt work.

No can do. Although the old Microsoft DHTML editing component allowed table operations, the new MSHTML editor doesn't for some reason.

Have a look at the HTMLarea scripts for a scriptable rich text editor.

That text editor will let you do it though. I saw that the command it uses is 'inserttable' but it didnt work on my editor when I tried it.
