Does CF have a WYSIWYG

Report · Jun 02, 2006

My client have a WYSIWYG object in JS which his causing some problems since the past two weeks. Wanted to know If CF has a WYSIWYG tag I could use ot redo the object instead of JS. The intention is to do all the Html formatting with the WYSIWYG.

Does CF have WYSIWYG?

um, you mean dreamweaver? you can do the layout in the wysiwyg, but, application creation is best done in code...

There are many third party (some may be free?) editors that work nicely with Coldfusion. I think the one I used in the
past was Eclipse (which has a great ColdFusion plugin) . The content management systems we built had an admin section
that allowed users to create pages on the fly. We included this plugin as a cfx tag for our users.

No, cf does not have a dedicated development environment. Tools like
dreamweaver and cfeclipse (an eclipse plug in) offer partial suuport. I say
'partial' is so much as the features and tools avalaible for cf development
are only extremely basic compared to what is available for other more
'maintsream' development platforms (Java, PHP and .NET for example)

With respect to 'WYSIWYG' - dreamweaver offers some basic functionality for
CRUD like applications via it server behaviours. Godd for quickly knocking
up reports like apps and other such things - but as the othe poster said,
you really just have to write the code if you want to do anything a little
more involved.

Your not looking for a development environment right ( not Dreamweaver etc..) but an HTML editor that users (not developers) can use to add content to their Website correct?

Umm... FCKEditor has ColdFusion integration support. I'd go and use that. However, I didn't quite get the question. What good does replacing a JS-based WYSIWYG editor do with any other WYSIWYG editors... since they _all_ use Javascript extensively anyway?

Btw,
It's funny how some trollers really try to misunderstand the questions so that they can rant and rave around the forums, praising other technologies. Why _are_ they on this forum, when they don't even care about CF? It's just too funny. And sad for them. (I'm not going to read any answers - no time to feed trolls)

I can see I misunderstood the question now, but theres not need to resort to
telling silly stories about how I am interested only in praising other
technologies. I don't mind so much you acting that way, but it does make you
appear to be a little insecure about your technology choice, just because
some mentions, and barely mentions at that, some other technology.

>And sad for them.

And certainly a little sad for you if your mind is still in "cf versus the
rest of them" mode.

>I'm not going to read any answers

Yeah, you are. I think what you mean is that you will not respond. Probably
just aswell if triggering "cf versus all other platforms" flame wars is all
you are interested in.

rant and rave around the forums, where? seems to be you doing the ranting so
far as I can tell.
