Unless it's a study-project, I recommend downloading FCK Editor: #-Link-Snipped-#

Open Source has solutions for almost everything, you see 😀

Anyway, if you want to make it on your own you'll need -

1. HTML
2. CSS
3. JavaScript
4. PHP/ASP etc.

I'm no expert, but wouldn't AJAX make life a whole lot better (for the user, not the programmer!!)??

I was talking of a simple HTML editor. AJAX wold add lot of pizza to the editor for sure 😉. However, I'm not sure 'AJAX' would fit the bill.

Didn't get you.

The editor that you see on CE when your hit 'Post Reply' button should give you an idea. The one we use on CE is quite an advanced one 😎.

I want to ask that its fine that i should these things

But I want to know how to start coding for this i mean I am not able to understand what type of controls or commands are needed in making an editor for html like the one on w3schools check this out
<a href="https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_intro" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">W3Schools Tryit Editor</a>

can you give some example commands
such as how to create a frame or anything like that

How is this editor working i mean how the code is getting executed to show the output on the same page?

Are you familiar with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and other languages mentioned above? If not, it would be better if you go through these languages.

Of course, you should start with basic controls - bold, italics, underline etc and add more functionality.

However, building HTML editor first needs deep knowledge of HTML and modern CSS techniques, else browser compatibility will be a huge issue.

I suggest for u is download Dreaweaver IDE. Which have the inbuilt controls for many languages like Html,jsp,Asp,PHP. U just need to pick and drop controls on form and the code will generate at background.

But remember one thing that code will only show u the html part of page. Rest of the coding u have to do. Means if u r using PHP language then u have to write code for PHP.
