Another PHP Basic problem, if anyone could be so kind to shed some light...
What I am trying to do is this:
You have a form, and the action is to itself. And in order to process this form, there are a list of functions like filtering bad words, enabling styled text and whatnot.
I want to add a checkbox in the form that asks if you want to make this post ( this is a form to post a topic ) bold and red font.
This is what I have done thus far:
The HTML:
The PHP Behind It:
This doesn't work because the name part of the form is still just regular text and I want it to be bold.
Is this possible with everything else staying the same?

HTML:
<form method=post action="message.php[COLOR="Red"](this file)[/COLOR]" name="form"><br>
<p><input type="hidden" name="a" value="addnew"><b>Name:</b><br><input type=text name="name" size=30 maxlength=30><br>
E-mail (optional):<br><input type=text name="email" size=30 maxlength=50><br>
<b>Subject:</b><br><input type=text name="subject" size=30 maxlength=100><br><br>
<b>Message:</b><br><textarea cols=50 rows=9 name="message"></textarea><br>
Insert styled text: <a href="Javascript:insertspecial('B')"><b>Bold</b></a> |
<a href="Javascript:insertspecial('I')"><i>Italic</i></a> |
<a href="Javascript:insertspecial('U')"><u>Underlined</u></a> |<br>
