html editor component

Post by josemv » Mon Jan 05, 2009 5:00 pm

Hello,

we need an application to manage multiple sites that must work under Windows and Mac. Would like to build with Revolution.

There are two very important components for this tool FTP client and HTML WYSYWYG editor. After some reading I suppose ftp is not a problem, but HTML editor its available?

Thanks in advance
Jose

Hi Jose,

I made an HTML editor. Together with the revBrowser external, this produced a WYSIWYG html editor, kind of. A real WYSIWIG editor is possible, but a lot of work.

Hi Mark,

thanks for your reply.

Do you know any demo or some tryout app to check what is possible to do with that feature? We don't need many HTML features, but wouldn't like to spent time in something that couldn't be upgraded if needed.

Jose,

The only stack I know about that has this feature is my own.

Mark,

excuse me if I ask a stupid question, but no idea about Revolution yet... where it is available that stack or do you sell in some way?

Could I take a look to know how it works? I need something simple able to run under Windows and Mac allowing simple tags like bold, italic, list an so on. We will not use tables or other complex structures, but would be great if it is able to give support. How about CSS?

Thanks
Jose

Jose,

My stack was a prototype for a client. Therefore, I don't think I can make it available for free. If you send me an e-mail, I might send you some pictures and perhaps we can work out something.

My stack does a little bit of CSS and other neat stuff, but it isn't a complete editor yet.

Best,
