On a small side note regarding that compendium and also RichTextBox, SiteObjects has just released a new version of its soEditor product that is supported not only on Cold Fusion, but also Classic ASP and .NET. The .NET version has several of the things that make RichTextBox appealing on the .NET platform such as rich Visual Studio.NET integration, publicly exposed events, and a few other development related features.
If differs w/ RichTextBox and quite frankly most other WYSIWYG editors greatly in its feature sets, and also its UI. soEditor has been built to have a Word XP feel to it so that users can start using it quickly and feel comfortable with it immediately if they are familiar w/ MS Word. The drawback to using soEditor however is that it's only supported on Windows PC's running IE5+. Also it currently implements the DHTML Edit Control behind the scenes which has been known to cause some issues on PC's running IE5. However, w/ v2.6, I'm gutting the DHTML Edit Control and migrating soEditor to the more modern MS HTML Editing toolset. Then w/ v3, soEditor is getting a completely make-over and soEditor will display a light-weight flash version for "down-level" browsers. If you are interested in checking out soEditor 2.5, you can visit our site at www.siteobjects.com and you can view the live example applications for all three supported platforms at http://www.siteobjects.com/pages/soeditordocs.cfm. Also, if interested, you can download a free lite version of our new 2.5 product. - James -----Original Message----- From: Francois Jordaan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 4:56 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Hi Jeremy, > I wonder if anyone can help me - I'm looking for suggestions > of a WYSIWYG > editor to add into our CMS.
