[opencms-dev] Java Editor Implementation

[Jee-Meng Ang]

Hi,

What about Java 1.1 support?  Most browsers only supports up to JDK 1.1.
Implementing an editor based on Swing will mean that the users will have to
install JRE 1.2 and above, which can lead to deployment headaches?

Are there any editor implementations that uses only AWT?

Regards,
Jee-Meng

I have also only recently joined the list, but I'll spam along
anyway.

There is a html editor applet, ekit, http://www.hexidec.com/ekit.php
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ekit/ which seems to be in active
developement. Maybe this Ekit kan be adapted to the editor needs
of opencms? Is there anyone on the list that has evaluated Ekit?

My pet pewee about these wysiwyg editors are that they allways
seems to fokus on html as a font layout tool not a html markup
tool. Eg there are no buttons for <h1>-<h6>, <ul>, <strong> or
<em>. The buttons are soley for layout html tags. like <b> <i>
<font> etc.
