I was actually hunting around for something like this just yesterday! It's not perfect - but it's not the worst thing I've seen either. Thanks for the link.

Re: [WSG] Online HTML text editor
XStandard rocks! It took me a few minutes to get it working in our CMS. Their approach to styles and CSS is very flexible and simple. I have not seen anything even close to their accessibility support. The free version is certainly usable is a customer solution. Licensing is very competitive so cost of using the Pro version should not be a barrier. And it works in MSIE or Mozilla (FireFox PR1.0).

Re: [WSG] Online HTML text editor
Hi Jacobus, The editor in question uses the MSHTML control built into IE. It's an HTML 4 editor based on a 5 year old version of FrontPage. This control is no longer updated and as far as I know, it is impossible to get it to create standards-compliant markup. Jacobus, I am one of the developers of XStandard. It is a true standards-compliant XHTML editor. A free version is available that you can use in your commercial applications. Here is the link for more info: http://xstandard.com To see how XStandard generates standard-compliant markup, check out this article: http://xstandard.com/wysiwyg/ Regards, -Vlad XStandard Development Team http://xstandard.com - Original Message - From: "Jacobus van Niekerk " <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 11, 2004 6:17 AM Subject: [WSG] Online HTML text editor > Hi all, > > Just though I should share this nice open source HTML text editor that > produces valid XHTML. > > http://www.fckeditor.net/ > > Enjoy! > > Kind Regards > Jacobus van Niekerk > > Creative Consultant > > > web: http://www.catics.com/ | http://www.freelancecontractors.com > tel: + 27 21 982 7805 > > > > This e-mail message is confidential and intended solely for the person to > whom or the entity to which it is addressed.

Re: [WSG] Online HTML text editor
It's nice, and valid, but in this case "valid" doesn't mean clean. This is what I just came up with when playing with it: --- This is some sample text. You are using http://www.fckeditor.net/";>FCKeditor.It's a pity about the span tags being used as liberally as font tags used to be. It might be valid, but that doesn't make it nice... - That used to be: -- This is some sample text. You are using FCKeditor. It's a pity about the span tags being used as liberally as font tags used to be. It might be valid, but that doesn't make it nice... - and then I started clicking formatting buttons. Yeah, it's about the user, but that doesn't make it any better... I know that if some clients were given that much choice, they'd exercise it. Valid? Yes. Good? Hmm... Does anyone know how easy it is to lock FCKeditor (heh, always seems like typing an expletive, hey?) down so going crazy with colours or fonts isn't an option? It's probably really simple, but I haven't tried... thought I'd ask here to see if anyone else had experience, before I go wasting time...
