[opencms-dev] using WYSIWYG editor for dynamic data with backend module

[Alexander Kandzior]

Marcus,

The documentation to the ActiveX is somewhere in the MSDN, see
http://msdn.microsoft.com. 

BTW: I do not recommend using the ActiveX. You should use the MS IE
"Contenteditable" feature. This provides almost the same functionality
without the hassle. See the MSDN for the "contentediable" html
attribute. 

Best Regards,
Alex.
