Thank you Costin-
I greatly appreciate your help, and while this does help - and I do hate to be a pain - have you any ideas for making a list from selected text? Basically, user types in (or more likely pastes in) some info and then wants to make a list. The "desired" process would be, select text in textarea, apply list of choice (<ol> or <ul>). Any help with that? Thank you in advance.
