php help?

[Zrikz]

So I need some help, for something that I think should be easy, I just don't know how to do it =/

I want to make a button, like BB code for a php page. So when clicked, it will take the highlighted text and apply bold, italics, superscript, subscript, etc. html tags around the text.

Isn't that done with JavaScript rather than PHP?

Edit: My first hit on google: http://forums.devshed.com/javascript-development-115/add-b-b-tags-to-selected-text-in-a-textarea-209193.html

well hey, that works, thanks a bunch. I figured it would use some javascript, I was just thinking it would be all php, but I don't know of any listening php scripts =/
