[cfaussie] Re: Rich text editor for ColdFusion - recomendations
FCKEditor is free and better than activedit. On Mon Nov 27 19:28 , 'ACTCFUG' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>sent: I have recently opted to release the source code for www.actcfug.com to the community - as a fast track to a fully functional User Group web site that is not written in PHP. Written using Fusebox it is quite powerful and includes roles based security. Unfortunately for me I mainly use a product called "ActiveEdit" (version 4.x) - a fine rich text editor that works amazingly well with ColdFusion, eg: width="800" height="450" upload="1" breakonenter="true" alloweditsource="yes" buttoncolor="cdcdcd" image="true" toolbar="cut,copy,paste,|,redo,undo,|,outdent,indent,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,bullets,numbers,|,table,image,hyperlink,||,find,help,specialchars,|,quickformat,bold,italic,underline,showdetails,hr" tabview="yes" imagepath="#Request.ActiveEditImagePath#" imageurl="#Request.ActiveEditImageURL#" baseurl="#Request.ApplicationURL#" stylesheet="#Request.ApplicationURL#/style.css" appletlicense="#Request.ActiveEditLicence#"> Of course I am not at liberty to distribute ActivEdit so any suggestions for a similar open source alternative would be welcome. Also the image upload facility recently broke for no reason - argh. Note that the version would need to be re-distributed under a similar open source arrangement so I would more than likely require the developers permission to include it. It would seem farcical to return to a straight TEXTAREA control but am willing to do that if an alternative is not available. the ColdUserGroup code at this stage requires at least ColdFusion 7.x (as I use Flash forms a bit) but that could be adjusted. It will at least require Microsoft SQL Server 2000+, I will consider an "Access" version but no serious developer would contemplate that surely. However www.actcfug.com and its code base could be better. Written quickly but functional I would like to see it evolve, say more use of CFC's, better support for member content submission. The official site will be listed at www.riaforge.com and I encourage all CF developers to contribute. Some bits, like the Google Calendar (cool) will be stripped out but placeholder text included for users to add their own functionality. Flex 2 support is an obvious choice but I have found documentation for Flex 2/CF severely lacking so far - especially in a hosted environment - and feel my Flex 2 skills aren't quite ready for that yet. An O'Reilly book is on the way - next year I also use Flash forms a bit - but good XML forms are a viable alternative until their performance is on par with Flex 2.

save your breath. I've been telling TIlbrook that FCKEditor is at least as good as ActiveEdit, probably better, for years now but he sticks wtih ActivEdit. Maybe with this project he'll have to learn to use it.

Thanks Mike, I love you too! I did/do have a license for AE but as mentioned no good for an open source project. On 28/11/06, Mike Kear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > save your breath.
