editor features?
I want to use a simple editor which has the capability of changing color or
bold it... a very simple one in my application of asp/access. Can anyone
suggest any such editor whereby I can use it?
my purpose is to get story written by a student in the textbox/textarea of
that editor from the database. The teacher highlights using the editor
features....making letters bold or in red to highlight changes. and then
save it to the database.
later available for the student to view his changes.
any help would be appreciable.
thanks

monika #4 Re: editor features?
hi tom ..thanks for the quick response. I realise that here divDisplay is
the object where i need to retrieve the value from the database. pls see the
change i did to make it useful for my application:
..
..
..
..
<%
DIM RSA
DIM QUERY
Set RSA = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
QUERY = "select story_name from story_table where story_id = 1"
rsa.open query, "dsn=school"
%>
<TR>
<TD colSpan=3><INPUT style="WIDTH: 207px; HEIGHT: 22px"
type=hidden size=26 name=hiddenInput>
<TABLE onclick=divDisplay.focus(); borderColor=#9ea1d6
height=100 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=502
align=center bgColor=#e5e6f3 border=1
value=<%=rsa.fields("story_name")%>>
...remaining code...
but i dont the value being retrieved from the database? how can that be
achieved?
my purpose is to get the story from the database in the editable textbox or
whatever and then save the content to the database after changing it?
would be a great help if u respond.
thanks

Tom B #5 Re: editor features?
Don't use value= as that's for an input box and this is a div within a table
cell
<DIV id=divDisplay onkeyup=saveCursorPos();
contentEditable=true
name="divDisplay"><%=rsa.fields("story_name")%></DIV>
You'll note that there is a hidden form field with the clever name
"hiddenInput" (don't ask why there are size values....my graphics guy)
when the Save button is clicked, the data with in the div is put into the
hidden field through the cmdSave_onClick function.
I just realized this really has nothing to do with asp and is all
client-side stuff. Feel free to respond to me directly, or post in a
javascript group.
