It was developed with that in mind, but the class itself can be used as
standalone editor (I´m already using it for some projects). You simply set
the content by writting to the _content property of the HTMLeditor class
and get the content by reading that property.
Currently i don´t have the time to make a component, but it should be
really easy to create a component from what is done.
The JS file is used to replace textareas with the html file, and the
configuration options you see are simply passed via flashvars to the
class, so you don´t need it to make the editor works.

That seems to be a flash file specifically for HTML forms and uses a

if you did, and how would you get the end string from it?

Right, if I follow you, that's similar to what I have tried, but I
can't
get the textfield to re-render the HTML tag - it shows the tag
literally if I use replaceText() or replaceSel().
Or how would you do it? Have a code example? thanks.

i've made some simple ones for css sites, that get their copy out
of a
db. i used textformats back in the flash 6 days, then in the
output
string, once you've applied the formatting in the "editor" text
field,
you look for the textformat tags, strip them out and replace with
what
you need for the corresponding styles for your site....
with 7 and the stylesheets support maybe it's even easier than
that. I
just remember having to keep things simple in terms of editor
functionality, basically one button for each possible style....

Two related questions. In a nutshell, trying to make a WSIWYG
HTML
text
editor for Flash 7.
Question 1:
Has anyone created an HTML text editor component or class of some
kind
in Flash? Basically, having a textfield containing a paragraph
of
text
the user can apply bold, size, font, etc. to - I assume it would
use
something like:
textfield.replaceText(Selection.getBeginIndex(),Selection.getEndIndex(),
theNewString)
or something to that effect.
So to my second question, I was able to get the above working,
but
the
html Textfield would not apply the new HTML tags, it would show
them
literally when replaceText was used. Initially, I set the text
with
textField.htmlText = myText and renders fine with the bolding,
but
textField.replaceText() seems to not allow the textfield to show
the
bold tags applied - it shows the literal tag. Any ideas?
Basically, would like to create a WSIWYG HTML text editor (flash
7),
but
from what I read in the archives, it's a lot harder than it
sounds
and
maybe not even possible in Flash right now, but I don't want to
give
up
too early. It seems that all the basic methods are available,
there
are
just some quirks to work out with the Textfield class.
Thanks,
