Hi. I'm new in this list and this is my first message to the community :) Well, here come my question. I've been searching around for a Wysiwyg editor that i could include to edit the content of my DTML documents. I founded some web pages (here is a list of possibilities) explaining how to integrate an IE Editor inside Zope but after the instalation of it (the one from vsbabu.org exactly because it also has the posibilities to include images and links from the server) i founded a very anoying problem. When you edit a document with this Microsoft Editing control it removes my <dtml-var standard_html_header> and starts writing after my <dtml-var standard_html_footer>. So it brokes the structure of my page. My final idea is... i've got a web page managed by non technical users. In every web page there's a link to an administration page where they will have this visual control to edit the contents of this specific page. This will make everything very easy. I can't understand why this kind of tool is not more developed for Zope when probably it will make the editing of documents no so awful for non technical persons. Thanks in advance. Bye!

Because your non technical staff should not see or edit any DTML!!! "Content-Users" should only edit content (maybe in HTML or StructuredText), you (as web-application-developer) have to write and maintain the application, which renders the content... Maybe you should have a look at something like UnifiedHTMLDocument / StructuredDocument. And just another one: Zope isn't a Content-Management-System, Zope is an application-server!!! You can build your own CMS-applications with it... or use a ready-out-of-the-box-CMS like PLONE... Cheers, Maik

Bye! ------------ Welcome... First, please don't post in HTML or RTF. We're an ASCII mailing list. Formatted text gives us collective headaches. As for your problem: you probably won't find anything. DTML is pretty obscure as far as dynamic HTML solutions go so tool providers just aren't interested. You're better off looking at using Page Templates for your content, as these were designed from the ground up to be editable with visual design tools.
