Boy am I embarrassed.  It must have got fixed in 2.12.2 because it works
now.

Sorry about that.

Only if you copy and paste, you will have this problem. Just click on
the link. It will open correctly.

I believe Evolution uses its very own fork of GtkHTML, as I discover
each time I try to file a bug against GtkHTML and get told its an
Evolution-only bug.

Someone needs to go and fix Evo so it properly converts & to &
inside HREF attributes again.  It's been broken this whole release.  I
hate having to save the email to disk and reopen it from Firefox in
order to properly use the links in some emails.

Evolution merely wraps GtkHTML's Bonobo-based HTML editor with
additional buttons and menus that make it suitable as an email composer.
There's a simple standalone test program in GtkHTML under
components/html-editor/test_editor that may serve as a starting point
for your needs.

I also have a GtkHTML branch called "mbarnes-composer" where I'm
attempting to create an identical GtkWidget-based HTML editor that can
be extended using GtkUIManager instead of Bonobo.

The GtkWidget-based editor is not yet complete, but I do have a working
test program under components/editor/gtkhtml-editor-test.

[Evolution-hackers] HTML composer as a standalone program?

2007-11-24 Thread Dan Stromberg
Evolution has a pretty nice HTML e-mail composition window.

I've been dreaming of having an HTML editor that would work basically
like that, so I could point diehard microsoft word fans at and say
"See, HTML works fine for editing most documents - it's the conversion
process from word to HTML and back that's flawed".

What would it take to make a standalone HTML editor out of evolution's
HTML e-mail composition component?

Thanks!
