the smiley popup box

in the old soup, the smiley box worked by having a <tr onclick> function to paste the smiley code into the editor, instead of a link. the way it is now, as a link, all the smileys stop moving as soon as one is clicked, making it difficult to find another one. i'd never seen <tr onclick> before i saw the old smiley panel, but would <td onclick> work too? that would solve the two column problem
