Hello Guys
Is there a way to generate HTML automatically say on a save after a
user has entered their text in a WOText box. I know it can read or
escape HTML that is already written into text if you use escapeHtml
option, but that is not what I want to do.
I'm trying to find out if it can be put in by the application itself
just like you can save a word document in HTML format.
I've been asked about this by the client I am building an app for.
They know nothing of HTML and do not want to have to write a document
in Word for example to then save it in HTML Format so that they have
to then cut and paste the source into a WOText area in order for it to
generate the line breaks or paragraphs that the text might need.
The client simoly want to enter text and the WOText box and not have
to worry about HTML
Ah.. what you're looking for here is a Java applet that can be
integrated into a form and allow WYSIWYG editing.
Many of these things rely on a certain browser as far as support is
concerned. Also, Windows IE clients have this built in so you can edit
HTML in a form by using a certain tag.

There are some free versions on www.sf.net as well.
