I found a Java applet that allows you to edit HTML right in a web page, replacing a textarea with a WYSIWYG HTML editor. It occured to me that this would be a fabulous thing to use with Zope to do away with textarea inputs for HTML. Is anyone doing this?
These tools are not free :-( but they are not very expensive either:
Cross Platform (Java Applet) implementation of this. (This is the one I'm interested in): http://www.realobjects.de/index.htm?/english/editonpro_e.htm
Windows tools that do this: http://www.ektron.com/ewebeditpro.cfm?doc_id=1035 http://www.mifo.com/comgistics.htm http://www.editlive.com/product/
Scott: I put round a list of such widgets a while back: http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/ByKey/07BEF5913610EC2E and you've extended it - thanks. I had a more recent one that I shared with the cms-list but their archive is down just now ( see http://www.camworld.com/cms/ for pointer).
How would you make Zope serve up a java applet without having to run Apache just for applet serving?
How hard would it be to make Zope put this type of stuff in the management pages where ever a text box is currently used to grab HTML input?
As Joachim has indicated this it is not a problem getting Zope to work with applets. Paul -- The Library, Tyndall Avenue, Univ. of Bristol, Bristol, BS8 1TJ, UK E-mail: paul.browning@bristol.ac.uk URL: http://www.bris.ac.uk/
