If you’re a WordPress user and make regularly use their Rich Text Editor (you know the WYSIWYG one), you’ll be delighted to know that you can access additional functionaliy by pressing ALT-V (try ALT-SHIFT-V) if that doesn’t work. I suspect this works on all TinyMCE installations, but I’ve only experienced it on WordPress.
What does the extra toolbar give you. Here are what the buttons offer:
- Adding heading and other HTML tags
- Underline
- Full Align
- Select Text Colour
- Paste as Plain Text
- Paste from Word (cleans up all the junk yet retains formatting - Woohoo!!)
- Remove Formatting
- Cleanup messy code (Wow!)
- Insert custom character
- Undo and Redo
Don’t know how I lived without this! Kudos to Everybody Goto for the great tip

Hmm…that’s interesting, I will have to check that out. Normally though I don’t use the WYSIWYG, I’m an old school ‘type that code out’ kind of gal.
