frontpage, dreamweaver, arachnaphilia, even Word can be saved as html. Are
you talking about a web page editor? or are you talking about a text editor
that has features for inserting html around that you see (not underlying the
text)?
Check out the text editors on empowermentzone.

Subject: Creating A Text Editor
Hi: I am thinking of creating a Text Editor in Vb.net. It will use either a
TextBox or RichTextBox as the Work Area for the file. I have code to handle
some of the key events such as search, copy and paste. Any suggestions or docs
on the subject you might recommend?
This editor will be a basic Text Editor but will have features to replace
standard code with code that will allow the file to be used as an online
document containing html code and include active links to predefined sections
and all that jazz.
In other words, I create a document in the TextBox,there will be some popups
to do things like add sections and hyperlinks. They will be translated into the
appropriate html so the document can be included in a Webpage. Also, there will
be the usual suspects like perhaps a hot key to add a <br /> tag here and there
and other things I can't think of at the moment. It will be an ongoing project.
If there is something already out there that does these thingys let me know
so I don't ReInvent the wheel.
Or, if you have messed with building a Text Editor you might throw out a few
gotyas if you remember any.
Thanks:
Rick USA
