I am experimenting with Intraweb right now, for a few small personal-use web apps

  • 0

I am experimenting with Intraweb right now, for a few small personal-use web apps I am wanting to develop. Learning time is at a premium, so I am very attracted to intraWeb due to Delphi experience transferring so well and immediately — just messing around with it today, I managed to get a data-driven web app up and running, almost effortlessly. (Basically, I say all that as a answer to why I’m not pursuing this in ASP.NET). I have very little / no web development experience, so I was thrilled to be able to pull off so easily. 🙂

ANYWAY…. apologies if I’m too excited. That’s the preface / context… Here is my question:

For one app I’m wanting to develop, it would be REALLY nice to have some built-in rich-text / word processing / editor control — as easy / “plug and play” as possible. Something akin to what WPTools offers for Win32 apps, or FCKeditor appears to offer as a web control, or TinyMCE, which seems to have lots of fans. Could either of these last two be integrated into an data-driven IntraWeb app? — if so, where can I learn more re: the “how” of that?

Note: I am fine buying a third-party component if necessary to solve this problem.

Thanks for any and all input!

    Looks like the best fit for your needs would be TTIWHTMLEdit or TTIWDBHTMLEdit, part of the TMS Component Pack Pro for IntraWeb (125 Euros currently). Here’s an online demo, though it seems they have not hooked up all of the formatting buttons.

    Since TinyMCE is Javascript-based, it should be usable embedded in an Intraweb page. Have you looked at the TIWForm.JavaScript property and similar? The Intraweb online help has a section on embedding Javascript.

    I strongly encourage you to ask on the Intraweb newsgroup if you don’t get satisfaction here (or in parallel…). It’s likely that someone has a ready solution. Even the original author of Intraweb, Chad Hower, pipes in on the peer-support group, and Jackson Gomes is often very responsive. While developing in Intraweb, the AtoZed priority support is worth considering – particularly if you’re already prepared to get something third- (or fourth?) party – the AtoZed team really work to help you find solutions and fix issues. Paid for itself many times over when I had an Intraweb project in the works.

    The peer-support NNTP group is atozedsoftware.intraweb on news.atozed.com
