BBCode enchancements for forums?

Can anybody suggest any good BBCode enhancements for the forums (using RavenNuke 2.10 distribution).

I've tried Advanced BBCode Box 5.0.0 and 5.1.0c and getting weird things going on. I could get them to work and insert code; however, whenever you clicked on a "button" such as B for bold, the button either disappeared (so you could not close the tag or clicking on multiple buttons causing the bottons to increase the size of the button bar (see site referred to in this post: http://www.ravenphpscripts.com/posts9666-highlight-advanced+bbcode.html for an example).

Basically it just doesn't work 100% on any site I've seen it running on, so pretty certain it's not the best of mods to use, hehehe.

Can anybody suggest any other BBCode hacks/mods that work well?

Additionally, I notice in Firefox the quick keystrokes (alt+b, alt+i, etc) do not work...any way to get that working in FF? Seems to work in IE, but not necessarily my default choice in browsers, hehehe...

(Was not sure if this should have gone here or in the BBtoNuke forum...so if a moderator could move if needed...)

That's the whole issue, it is NOT working, hehehe...so wondering if there is any other BBCode enhancement mods out there. I don't want to install this again as it pretty much breaks using any BBCode in posts, but this site's forums do similar things in Firefox:

That is NOT my site, but you can see how the BBCode buttons act strangely...
