EQ2Interface - Smilies/Post Buttons in Mod Attachments

i know this much, mozilla is "retarded" when it comes to dealing with text. compare...
the scripting it takes to do the button for IE:

Code:

                if (text.substring(0, vbcode.length + 2 ) == "[" + vbcode + "]" && text.substring(text.length - vbcode.length - 3, text.length) == "[/" + vbcode + "]")

                {

                        AddTxt = text.substring(vbcode.length + 2, text.length - vbcode.length - 3);

                }

                else

                {

                        AddTxt = "[" + vbcode + optioncompiled + "]" + text + "[/" + vbcode + "]";

                }

                AddText(AddTxt);

the scripting it takes to do the button for Mozilla:

Code:

                var start_selection = theform.message.selectionStart;

                var end_selection = theform.message.selectionEnd;



                // fetch everything from start of text area to selection start

                var start = (theform.message.value).substring(0, start_selection);

                // fetch everything from start of selection to end of selection

                var middle = (theform.message.value).substring(start_selection, end_selection);

                // fetch everything from end of selection to end of text area

                var end = (theform.message.value).substring(end_selection, theform.message.textLength);



                if (middle.substring(0, vbcode.length + 2 ) == "[" + vbcode + "]" && middle.substring(middle.length - vbcode.length - 3, middle.length) == "[/" + vbcode + "]")

                {

                        middle = middle.substring(vbcode.length + 2, middle.length - vbcode.length - 3);

                }

                else

                {

                        middle = "[" + vbcode + optioncompiled + "]" + middle + "[/" + vbcode + "]";

                }



                theform.message.value = start + middle + end;

                setfocus();

                theform.message.selectionStart = end_selection + middle.length;

                theform.message.selectionEnd = start_selection + middle.length;

                return false;
