To enhance the Editing and Maintance of the Portals Content I have install Ollie Comes RichTextBox in my Portal Applications. This enhancement provides the IbuySpy Portal with the editing and format features of RichTextBox text format capability, add color and image insert and altering capalilities. This new portal feature allows you to paste in content along with maintaining the database content on line. The most important reason for implementing the RichTextBox in the Portal Application is that now a Content Writer can insert and edit content without having to know HTML.

 

The RichTextBox is available at: www.richtextbox.com

 

To install the RichTextBox download the source from www.richtextbox.com . Install the RichTextBox in the Portals Bin folder and for each edit module in the DesktopModules folder you can edit the following files, EditAnnouncements.aspx,  EditContacts.aspx,EditDocs.aspx, EditDocs.aspx, EditEvents.aspx,EditHtml.aspx, EditLinks.aspx,  this file selection I have list is what I have modified in my portal application it is your choice as to what edit modules you want to have this feature. Each edit module has its particular naming ID attributes that must be adered to, but the overall modification is quite easy to install. Here is and example that Modifies the EditHtml Module.
