Hello all, some time ago, I started working on an semantical oriented, yet WYSIWYG XML editor for IE 5.5+, after being unsatisfied with some aspects of Xopus. It is not yet finished and lacks some aspects (content changes work, structural changes don't), but the basic components are there. I think this editor can be extended to support both IE and Mozilla; I am willing to donate it to the ASF.
For the interested who have a WebDAV-enabled directory available somewhere (e.g. most Tomcat users should have a webdav/ webapp available), grab yourself the contents of this zip archive and extract it into a directory called editor/ below the webdav/ directory. Then visit Microsoft at http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?URL=/downloads/sample.asp?url=/MSDN-FILES/027/001/766/msdncompositedoc.xml and download the "CAB file for Redistribution"; it contains an executable which in turn contains the necessary msxml4.cab; put this cab file into the editor/ directory, too, as it allows the ActiveX components for needed client-side XML and XSLT functionality to be offered for installation when needed. When going to http://<yourserver>:<yourport>/webdav/editor/test.html, you might be asked to install the signed Microsoft ActiveX-component for MSXML4, if it is not available on your client; this is for side-by-side install, so this should not hurt anything. Finally you see the sample page; here, click on "Load", then feel free to edit content; when ready, click on "Save"; you can check your results by clicking on "View XML". Drag'n'Drop and Cut'n'Paste work as they should; Right-mouse click shows some bonus information, just click on the yellow box to make it vanish. Have fun, fire at will ;) Best regards, Michael Hartle, Hartle & Klug GbR
