aspx thread: Online Newsletter Editor/Wizard


Message #1 by Romy Jarr <romyjarr@t...> on Wed, 23 Oct 2002 15:07:41 +0800
Hello guys,
 
I'm currently developing an ASP.NET application namely "Web-based Newsletter Management System".  The .NET language of preference is
C#.  So for this recent project, I was challenged to build a special feature called 'Online Newsletter Editor/Wizard'.  This is a
special module/functionality which could be the integral part of the entire application.  As the name suggest, this Online
Newsletter Editor shall enable the user to dynamically build newsletter(s) on-the-fly.  More or less, it should resembles the
features of webpage editor/wizard that is commonly available in most of the free webhosting services such as Geocities, Angelfire,
Xoom, etc.  However, it does not need to be overwhelmingly sophisticated.  The ability to create HTML file embedded with image
attachments are probably the desirable requirements.  The user shall type-in the newsletter content (in plain text format) inside a
textbox together with some other common newsletter elements - An HTML-based newsletter looks just like a web page, with lots of
design elements - color, graphics, photos, varying typefaces, columns, etc.  These elements also shall include hyperlinks to other
parts of the same document (as well as to websites).  In other word, this editor/wizard should be able to compose newsletter in a
WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) kind of style like Microsoft FrontPage.  At the end, the plain text content (created inside
the textbox) shall be encoded into an HTML format upon sending the email (I know how to do this part!).

I just need an assistance for the Online Newsletter Editor/Wizard part.  Preferably, I need a ready-made source code for it.  If you
have stumbled upon a case like this and you have gained a knowledge on how to build a similar feature, maybe you can share it with
me.

I need your help.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,
Romy
