Hi wonder if someone can help me.

Well I have been working with web stuff now for a fair amount and have decided I am ready to step up my skills to the next level.

The site I am trying to build will be a intranet site similar to a sharepoint intranet site.

I am building everything from scratch as I feel this is the best way for me to learn how to do things rather than use products that are out there already.

I have the basic shell working but have come up against a stumbling block I want the users to be able to enter text and images etc just like the text editor used in most forums including ocuk.

I have been trying to hunt down some good tutorials on how to expose/ create this text editor interface but none seem to be hitting the nail on the head for me. So does anyone know of any good resources that I can use? I know there are a whole host of free controls available but i really want to be able to build my own so that I can understand what is happening rather than just plugging in someone elses control. Plus this allows me to have greater control over the control and allows me to customize it as much as I want.

the site I am building is an AJAX based aspx site using C#.

Thanks in advance.
 
i see this more as a learning experience rather than being able to be develop a complete polished solution.

So although it may take me more time to develop it will be something that I will ultimately understand better.
