From: Freelance Traveller on 25 Feb 2010 10:12 I have a strong preference for using "good practice", if not "best practice" when it comes to coding my HTML. I've largely beaten FrontPage 2003 into submission; the code that it generates for me is pretty close to standards-conformant, and I even tend to avoid deprecated usages. I am also very much in favor of using semantic-oriented tags in preference to presentation-oriented tags, and apply presentation elements via CSS. One of the things I have to do to achieve this is use FORMAT > FONT to select the checkboxes for STRONG or EMPHASIS, instead of using the B and I toolbar buttons. The latter use the deprecated presentation-oriented tags B and I for applying bold and italic. I would like to add buttons to the toolbar that work exactly like the B and I buttons do, but which apply/toggle the STRONG and EM tags instead of the B and I tags. Can someone point me to either a download for this, or information sufficient for a non-Windows programmer to build this functionality? -- Jeff Zeitlin, Editor Freelance Traveller The Electronic Fan-Supported Traveller� Fanzine and Resource editor(a)freelancetraveller.com http://www.freelancetraveller.com http://come.to/freelancetraveller http://freelancetraveller.downport.com/ �Traveller is a registered trademark of Far Future Enterprises, 1977-2009.
