You need to add support for a rich text editor like internet explorer does.  If
there is a rich text editor on a page, mozilla doesn't handle it very well,
unlike netscape where is does handle it corectly.  But adding support for it
would help a   lot for me and my website.

Can you provide an example URL? We support the same Midas interface as IE; see

Mozilla has exactly the same rich text editing support as the latest Netscape does.

Marking invalid (since the bug is invalid as filed).  Please file specific bugs
on specific problems with rich test editing (and file them on the Editor:Core
component).

I have seen a rich text editor at
http://www.kidsgamehouse.com/Games_%26_More/Make_a_site/new/test.asp, and it has
all of the proper coding, but you cannot click inside the box to type.  It works
fine in internet explorer, but not mozilla or netscape!

Whoops!  The url is really
http://www.webwizguide.info/asp/sample_scripts/RTE_preview/default.asp, it is a
cross browser one!  Yet it works in IE but not Mozilla
