I need help. I want a clickable emoticon thing for my site.

like the one here. I kinda used the vbcode.js from here but I still havn't gotten it right.

I have...

function smilie(thesmilie) {
// inserts smilie text
document.message.value += thesmilie+" ";
document.message.focus();
}

the textarea name is message.

anyone who can get that to work for me...

also, having a signature in the textarea that you're trying to make the emoticons insert to would mess it up, no?

[drew010]

so you make an img src of the smily you want and around it put this:
<a href="#" onclick="smilie(':ID:'); return false;">

then when the form is submitted you do a $message = str_replace(":ID:", "<img src=\"smilieID.jpg\">", $message

make sure you haev the function smilie in with the page and it should work.

i know how to do everything OTHER than the js... ~_~

and that's the part not working.

In that case a Javascript forum may be more suitable for your needs.
