Need Help with ASP.NET implementation of FCKeditor

[jef]

I've got a page with the FCKeditor on it. The editor works fine,
however, since there is no documentation on ASP.NET implementations, I
can't figure out how to access the editor text in my VB code-behind. I
was about to experiment with some javascript that would put the editor
text value into a hidden text field so I could access it but that seems
like a goofy way of doing it. Help anyone?

hi,
did you download the asp.net connector for FCK, it's on the site
somewhere?
you can drag the control onto an asp.net form, and then access it
programattically in the code-behind, just like a normal server control.
i've used it in a .net project before and it's great. the config file
is very customisable for the toolbars etc.

hopefully you haven't tried too much to do some javascript stuff!!
sounds messy.

hi jef,
i don't recommend freetextbox because although there is a free version,
it is only a dumbed down version of the 'pro' license ($49). you can't
edit tables, and you can't change font and background colours, and you
can't use it in commercial aps.
it looks like a great piece of work, it's just a shame that they call
it freetextbox when they are obviously out to make money off it.
if some people find the limited functionality useful then that's great,
but in my mind they have taken out standard features to make people buy
their licenses.
