XForms and Rich Text Editing
November 1, 2007
Over at Developerworks, Steve Speicher and Andy Smith show some approaches for adding rich text editing controls to an XForms application.
By following some of the integration rules defined by XForms, XBL, and a rich text editor, the end result is a simple and powerful addition to the XForms set of controls. This can further enable the application of XForms in a variety of applications, such as blogs, e-mails, social networking sites, and more. These can then leverage the built-in capabilities of XForms for validation, XML submission, declarative programming, and more.This kind of thinking reminds me of some of my early thinking about XForms in particular and XML-based forms in general. When does a form end and a text editor begin?
