I already know the text area code for a website but when you use that code, you cannot put images or any other HTML in their or else it will just show up as plain text. So basicly, what I'm looking for is a code that gets a text area box like that but where you can put other HTML in their without it showing up. I'm not talking about an IFrame either because thats not what I want.
An example of the kind of thing i'm looking for is http://www.aovs02.dsl.pipex.com/index2.htm

Thx for any help!

Something inside a textarea WILL be only text. You can't put HTML tags there that would actually be parsed as code.

And besides, isn't your example site using a iframe?

You can use CSS to put a background image into a text area. Whether it's an input type=text or a textarea box.

Now if you are using a frame or iframe, then its just another page which you can include images as well.

but the CSS:

textarea {
background-image: url();
}

but... if you mean to have html activated shout boxes, for instance, then you would have to ask someone else.
