Free BBCode/HTML Markup Editors!

Markup editors set a new trend on the Web and i have seen many many websites use markup editors than using WYSIWYG editors. The main difference between WYSIWYG editors and Markup editors is markup editors insert markup html or bbcode in textarea while WYSIWYG editors give rich text environment to users. Markup editors are fast loading because of their simplicity and small code which is another advantage. Most markup editors are capable of inserting HTML, CSS, XML, Wiki syntax, BBCode for markups.

I generally prefer not to use WYSIWYG editors because most of them use iframe in javascript and it is more vulnerable to attacks.

Here are the some of the best markup editors i have seen.

Textarea HTML Markup Editor

Lightweight and very fast loading editor, which just inserts bbcode or html markup codes on the selected text.
