Of course, the other option - depending on your timescale (and maybe
your license) - would be to build it as a LC app, and then 'build for web'.
That way you'd have control over the formatting options you want to
allow/provide.

P.S. but then, I'm strongly averse to any use of JS, HTML, etc. because
I just don't like using them and would go out of my way to do
everything in LC if possible :-) I am holding my breath for next DPs of
LC for web.
Your mileage, and your dislike of non-LC languages, may vary.

Hi Richard,
It takes care of the line spacing problem fine which is good!
It doesn’t like apostrophes in words, and returns garbage for that.
It doesn’t keep any bold facing or text coloring information.
Thanks for this suggestion.
Rick

You may find it easier to set the contenteditable property of a container
element like div or p, and then you can retrieve the inner HTML of that element
with:
var tFldMainHTML = document.getElementById("fldMain").innerHTML
Save the example below to a text file and run in your browser. There's extra
stuff there just for appearance, but the meat of it is that one line.
Once the page is loaded, copy some styled text and paste it into the field.
When the button's clicked you'll see the full HTML tags in an alert dialog.
