Did anybody considered using other client side technologies than JavaScript, like using a Java Applet or Flash as the editor? Maybe they can capture paste events and such (I don't know...), also they have much less cross-browser problems (like they work with Opera and Safari). Yes, they can't render HTML on the same way the browser, but after all, if we are talking about a place where users enter pure content (I mean, structure) then maybe it is not a that big problem. I mean, the user sees clearly that he has made a paragraph here and ha level 1 heading there, even if he doesn't see how will it exactly look regarding the visual design. At least (s)he will concentrate on content rather than on visual design. Anyway, I think that HTML is not the ideal scheme for entering content. -- Best regards, Daniel Dekany _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [email protected] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
