Suck it up, buttercup.

...even learning how to code nor should they be expected to.
The cream rises to the top and you have an extra skill in life.

Yeah, I got your buttercup hanging, now if the insults are done by the rude ones let’s move on to a solution.

Here is a simple editor and why it isn’t part of FR by now is a mystery. As far as I know it’s free. Anyone can use it then copy and paste into a post but it should already be embedded into the posting software. An extremely easy thing to do for any code jockey.

An even simpler one: http://www.quackit.com/html/html_editors/tinymce_editor.cfm

I know there’s a way to introduce this code or script into Firefox so I don’t have to open a separate page to do it but not being a code jockey and having zero desire to learn it; I’m looking for help not insults. If all you have is insults; keep it to yourself.

By the way; this is nothing new, I found this stuff in the “Sandbox” linked to earlier. (Thanks)

Suck it up, buttercup.

If I may rephrase your point, this is an ad-free, donor-supported site for aggregating news and commentary. If "buttercup" wants to make a donation that will cover the cost of editing software, I'm sure Jim Rob will upgrade Free Republic with the desired features. Otherwise, the sensible choice is to be grateful for a streamlined site with no distractions and nonsense. I've been to http://www.breitbart.com/ and I do not want FR to be that cluttered just to pay for a slicker interface.

Your comment is SO funny and true. I did a bit of thread hosting here until a new job started consuming every waking hour. But, what I learned in html formatting has “amazed” my peers at this new job. It has opened up a whole new world in how we can improve a software/database package we have.

Oh, you want big red text, done.
