display_bbcodes(width, [textarea_name : string = "message"], [inputform_name : string = "inputform"], [selected :bool = false]) string


[intro]Bulletin Board Code or BBCode is a lightweight markup language used to format posts in many message boards. The available tags are usually indicated by square brackets surrounding a keyword, and they are parsed by the message board system before being translated into a markup language that web browsers understand as XHTML.[/intro]

This function will display all or chosen BBCode buttons for a given text area field so you can easily insert BBCodes into the text you are writing.

This function will return BBCode buttons which you can click on to insert a BBCocde in a given text field.

Usage

Code
<?php

 require_once INCLUDES."bbcode_include.php";

 echo "<form name='inputform'>n";

 echo "<table>n<tr>n";

 

 // Display the Text Area which we will insert BBCodes to

 echo "<td class='tbl'><textarea name='message' cols='60' rows='5' class='textbox' style='width:295px'></textarea></td>n";

 echo "<tr>n</tr>n":

 

 // Display the BBCode Buttons

 echo "<td class='tbl1'>".display_bbcodes("300px", "message", "inputform", "smiley|b|i|u||center|small|url|mail|img|color")."</td>n";

 

 echo "</tr>n</table>n</form>n";

 ?>
