Thank you very much Steve. I have few more queries. Please find them below. >From formatting capabilities, can HTML editor can be a substitute for WinWord. Users are very much used to WinWord editor. Asking them to switch to a new editor means they cannot edit fast. Another problem is that there are already many documents which are in RTF/DOC format and converting them to HTML (retaining the same formatting) would be dificult. Though the existing documents in can be converted to HTML format using WinWird, the generated HTMLs are not exactly equivalent to the DOC version. Hopefully there is some solution whereby we can integrate WinWord like editor for the requirement. >From: Stephen Summerfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Stephen Summerfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: Capturing RTF text from web browser >Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 10:35:38 -0000 > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: A mailing list about Java Server Pages specification > > and reference > > > > I need to capture RTF documents on the client from a servlet > > generated HTML > > and save to database by passing the captured RTF text to the > > servlet.
