A bit miffed about the doc/view architecture...
-
Hi there, Please forgive my ignorance, I'm a little new to MFC. I wish to create an MDI program that uses the CHTMLEditView, to create HTML documents. When the document has been created, and the user wishes to save the document, instead of saving the file out to the file system, I'd like to write it out to a database. I've thought that the way to go about this is to override the view's ID_FILE_SAVE and ID_FILE_SAVE_AS events. Given that an HTML document is media rich, into what type of variable would I read the document contents? I'm assuming that once read, the document content can be written to the database as a BLOB? Thanx for any input! skydiving....if at first you don't succeed, you're fecked!

The HTML portion of the document can be saved in a string because HTML is basically an overblown text file. Any images or media that the document references will have to be parsed for and then the elements found be stored as a BLOB. Michael :-)
