In my project I need to write small WYSIWYG editor (just let users make text bold/italic/underline and maybe some more). So I wouldn’t like to use monsters like tinymce or fckeditor. My question is what HTML elements and javascript functions do I need to know for it? An HTML element in which I can edit and format text is a very interesting thing in this question.

If you want to roll your own, look at Midas. It’s available in FF3+, IE, Safari, Opera, Chrome.
Basically, you use contentEditable and execCommand to turn the browser into an RTE.
