Does anyone know how to integrate a html editor or possibly an editor into links sql similar to what we see here in the GTforums. Basically allowing people who enter long descriptions to be able to bold text, underline it, italisize it, format paragraphs etc?

For LSQL, I think, integration of a html editor should be not a problem, since they are usually client side html, dhtml, and javascript codes.
Just cut & paste the code, check the form items to have the same values as earlier, and you are ready.
Make sure to do a backup before you touch for example the add.html file.
Note, for GT Forum, if you want fully compatible html editor into, then look for an editor supporting BBCode.

What I mean is enable users to submit html code in to Descriptionbx? Like urls, bolding, break tags. (those three are enogh for me ) Even the description has break tags, after pages are created tags displayed as is (like <br*> ) in description of the link.

Check out Xinha at:-
http://xinha.python-hosting.com/
This will do the job. You just have to watch out that people don't get 'carried away' with HTML as it can really screw up your pages. From recollection, Xinha is customisable, so you may be able to limit the codes that people are allowed to input.
It is also cross browser compatible.

Clint.

You must have some kind of system configuration issue (probably not related to links but Apache or your Web Server) I suggest.
My description fields are full of HTML and it displays perfectly.

Hi hegu,
do you mean you would like to have this "text-editor" (same as used in this forum for writing text and format it) to be used within your Links-SQL template, let´s say when a user wants to add some more detailed description while adding a link ?
I do have this feature working at my website (even running for 2 different languages).
If this is what you need, just contact Gossamer-Threads and they will help you out on this.
Best regards,
