    Thanks, man. Looks interesting, and the $129 license price is much more bearable than FCKEdit's pricing.

    Heh, no kidding. I checked out a bunch of them a year ago. Cute Editor won because it supports custom file providers so I could store images etc. in a database and still have access through the editor. The $129 license for a $5k website worked for me too. Cheers, Drew.

      Basically you need to license any derived work under the same license, LGPL. So if you had to add a toolbar, and that facility was not directly available via the API, and you have to modify the code of the LGPL object, you would have to make it publicly available under the LGPL.

      Thanks, Leppie. And with no disrespect intended towards those who wear formal attire, that's what I mean by not wanting to sell my soul to the Penguins. :-D

        Well, I've downloaded the trial version, and if I can bolt it on and get it working without any major adventures (their forums indicate there may be some), I'll probably be whipping out the credit card before the day is through. Even if they do use X| PayPay. :) Thanks, man!

            In fairness, I just took another look and realized that they haven't yet put out their first release candidate. It's not entirely fair to judge the quality of software while the cooks still have their fingers in the pot. :)

                I haven't found a really good one yet. I'm hoping the new offering (new as in it'll be out in a few weeks) from Developer Express will be as good as their other controls. Meanwhile I've been using Cute Editor[^] which has worked out fairly well. Cheers, Drew.

                I've used it, too. It was pretty robust and provided decent customizability

                  Hah! Yes, i'm talking more about something i could just drop into another app. :) Thing is, what i really want - and this would kinda be cool for CPhog as well - is an editor that supports... well, i'm not sure what to call them, but blocks of HTML that can't be edited directly. So for a wiki editor, you could drop in your ToC or a CurrentDate macro or something and have a bit of script to render a placeholder, but the rendered HTML couldn't be changed, and the actual markup generated would be something else. Or, in CPHog, instead of having an editor for the post with a signature box below it, you'd have a signature block in the post editor, but clicking on it would open up a separate chooser / editor. Kinda like the design mode in VS for WebForms stuff, but simpler. I'd also love to have a half-decent code editor mode in effect when you're in a PRE block. Auto-indent, on-the-fly syntax highlighting, etc. Again, i'm thinking of wiki / blog editors here. Ah, someday...

                      The code editor and syntax highlighting can be found in WYSIWYG editor from Innova Studio. I used it in a web-based email newsletter creation and distribution app I did. I ti was easy to use and I haven't had a single problem with it. The people using it are 20 year old Marketing Administrators with minimal computer skills and no HTML knowledge. It has worked out well. On top of saving me a bunch of time that may have been spent developing something similar or teaching them HTML, it was cheap. It costs $69 per developer, not per site like most, and the license allows royalty free distribution. You can find it here: http://www.innovastudio.com/editor.asp[^]. Looking at back at this post, I find it necessary to mention that I am not on Innova's marketing team nor affiliated with them in any way.

                          You only have to make your modifications to the LGPL'd code available. You do not have to make your code available in anyway, as long as you are not static binding to the DLL.
