Hello Everyone,

I’m researching the ability to use a GUI word-like editor in my content management application. We currently are using Namo Active Square www.namo.com and Ephox Java Edit live http://www.ephox.com . These components work well but unfortunately have high licensing costs. Does anyone have suggestions for the requirements below?

- All code is created in ASP and do not have the ability to ASP.net

- Licensing fee is free or around $100. Would consider slightly higher prices if unlimited use is an option.

- cross platform/ browser is preferred but not necessary as long as it works under IE 5.5 and windows

- Flash would be the preferred type of gui word-like component but I haven’t found one available that does htm tags. My second choice would be a client side-scripted or component gui word-like editor

- gui word-like features available are the ability to use html tags, image uploads, and word document handling capabilities


Your help would greatly be appreciated,

To run through the features:

- All code is created in ASP and do not have the ability to ASP.net

It generates HTML which is submitted in the form. You would need to process it yourself but it would work fine with ASP.

- Licensing fee is free or around $100. Would consider slightly higher prices if unlimited use is an option.

It appears to be free for all uses

- cross platform/ browser is preferred but not necessary as long as it works under IE 5.5 and windows

IE 5.5 Requred

- Flash would be the preferred type of gui word-like component but I haven’t found one available that does htm tags. My second choice would be a client side-scripted or component gui word-like editor

Client side, see above.

- gui word-like features available are the ability to use html tags, image uploads, and word document handling capabilities

It works with images, but you would need to write your own upload code, it only allows you to insert images from locations on the web. There's no direct HTML tag option, but you can view the source of the page. Don't think there are any capabilities for word documents though, apart from copying them and pasting them.
