{{H:h}}[[Category:Editor handbook]]
In compatible browsers, an '''edit toolbar''' can be automatically displayed with the edit box, provided that this has been set in the [[Help:Preferences|preferences]]. This functions partly as a typing aid and partly as a reminder of the available functions. All the functions are available simply by typing the code directly into the edit box (such as <nowiki>[[link]]</nowiki>) - this may be easier.
The toolbar works with [[w:Internet Explorer|Internet Explorer]], [[w:Mozilla Application Suite|the Mozilla Suite]]/[[W:SeaMonkey|SeaMonkey]], [[w:Firefox|Firefox]], [[w:Konqueror|Konqueror]], and [[w:Opera_(browser)|Opera]].
For example:<br>
[[image:Editing-toolbar-example1.png|Example of edit toolbar]]<br/>
''To turn a piece of text into an [[Help:Editing#Links|internal link]], select it and press the third button.''
In Mozilla browsers and IE, you can format existing text by highlighting the text you want to format and clicking the relevant button on the toolbar. If you click a button without selecting any text, sample text will be inserted at the cursor's position (like so: '''Bold text'''). In other browsers, clicking on the button presents an explanation for that feature. (Pre-release 9.0 versions of Opera browser also seem to support the advanced functionality.)
All of the toolbar options, and further editing options, are available in [http://wikipedia.mozdev.org Bananeweizen's Firefox extension].
