Can I (and if so, how) change the weight of a specific selection of text inside a textarea. (ie. can I have both BOLD and NORMAL text in SAME box?

Duvoor Kirthi, mark M, yes by using a iframe
I am not sure if u can do this using a text box
but u can get the same functionality using a iframe which is supported
only by ie4+.i think NN 6 also supports it.
Below is the code for doing this.
html>
<head>
<script>
function Editor()
{
this.Instantiate = EditorInstantiate;
}
function EditorInstantiate()
{
var html = "";
html += "<table cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\"
width=\"100%\">";
html += "<tr>";
html += "<td>";
html += "<iframe id=\"comp1\" width=\"100%\" height=\"190\">";
html += "</iframe>";
html += "</td>";
html += "</tr>";
html += "</table>";
document.write(html);
html = '';
html += '<body style="font:10pt arial">';
html += '</body>';
comp1.document.open();
comp1.document.write(html);
comp1.document.close();
comp1.document.designMode = "on";
}
function setVal()
{
comp1.document.execCommand("bold");
}
</script>
</head>
