Question Formatting text in Text Box

Hi,

I have a client which I am creating a cms website for using CF.

The client will enter text into text boxes, which will be stored in a database, and then output to the browser as the main text.

My previous clients are happy with just a title and then straight text, however this person wants the full thing, i.e. exactly like the text box I am typing in now.

These are the main things it needs to do. Enable to change the selected text to be a certain style (or if there is no other way, using the font size attribute); enable the client to insert bullet points using a certain style.

I have looked at many wysiwyg components, but they give the client too much control, which in turn will ruen the beautiful site!

Any help will be much appreciated

Joe

I have found a couple which are very close to what I want, and have listed the links in case anybody else may be interested.

And yes, Google is my best friend, but it is sometimes tricky doing a search if you don't know what it is called.

Thanks again,

Joe.

This one seems to be the best suited. And it's Java based which means it works well with Cold Fusion.
