Comment Quicktags. May be useful to use / study ?

Thanks podz! I’ll give it a whirl.

Okay, I’m making progress. The buttons are showing and functioning.

I’ve reviewed the plugin code and saw where the buttons are, but I can’t find where the “Dict.” and “Close Tags” buttons are programmed.

Where are those coming from and what does “Close Tags” do exactly? I figured it would close the tags, but evidently that’s not what it’s about because it didn’t do that.

Okay, I tried the “close tags” in IE and saw that it indeed closed the tags (frustrating that FF doesn’t do it).

So now my other question remains: where are those buttons coming from if not in the plugin code? I’m thinking about removing the “close tags” button, but can’t do that until the code is found.

[of course, this means that it’s probably staring me right in the face :P, but perhaps a fresh pair of eyes and wisdom could help ]

“where are those buttons coming from if not in the plugin code?”

wp-admin/quicktags.js

Oh I see now. It’s locating that file. Thanks for helping me connect the dots, Kaf! ??

How does one change the width of the tags showing up on the comments form? The tags appear when I aply the quicktags plugin, but in two columns and quite wide!

tgriff, it tells you that inside the plugin file, read it ??

How do i get the buttons on my comments popup?
