Would love help in open source HTML editor
Hello all!
my project is shown in my footer. I am asking for VB devs who would be interested in investing time in this project. I am sorry to say I have nothing to offer but a big thank you and a place in the credits box, so I don't blame you if you're thinking "no way" :D
Thanks!
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
I have time, since it's holidays, I might be able to help with bits and pieces of the program(but don't expect anything constant)
What does the project need doing ?
I red on your website that It need's converting to VB. So is your project fully working in C#, but you want it in vb ?
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Thanks for offering! :D I'd like help getting the autocomplete control working. It's coded in C# which I don't know, but it works in VB. I'll upload the latest source right now. Thanks again! :)
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Autocomplete like Intellisense or like when you type <html> it automatically gives you </html> ?
And also, Please check form1! Something is causing it to display an error that I can't remove without it messing up all the controls, and I also get a Nullreference exception that is related to one of the controls, but I can't look at it because it is messing up my controls.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Would it be the ribbon by any chance? I just barely uploaded the latest version. Sorry about the delay. What I'd like the autocomplete to do is I type <h and it will offer <h1></h1>, <h2></h2>, etc.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Yes, it is the ribbon, I think it's one of the buttons. I also want you to consider switching to wpf if the ribbon gives problems. You can then use the ribbon microsoft created, and you can use sharpdevelop's text control which is a very good syntax highlighter, and the default wpf webbrowser which doesn't look to bad.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
I was downloading the source form your website which is alpha 05, found the alpha 08 and downloading it.
Ok, so I downloaded the 08 and the ribbon is working nicely, so you can disregard the previous post. Will see what I can do.

Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Have you figured any thing out of it?
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
I've been fiddling with your program seeing what it does and how it was coded, but when I try download the help file for the fast colored textbox I can't it won't let me login to the site. So I can only try and fix the problem with trial and error, which is slow with third party components.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Ok, I fiddled with the control and I think I found a solution.
Add this as the last two lines of sub new
Code:
popupMenu.AppearInterval = 100
popupMenu.SearchPattern = "(.*)"
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Thanks a lot! I already added rep to you, so they don't let me do it again, but rest assured I would if I could! :D Do you have a name you would like to go in the credits box by? Also, would you know how to display images by the autocomplete items? The textbox does have that feature.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
I'll look into that tomorrow, It's getting pretty late. And I don't care for credits. I only gave you two lines of code in 4 days, not quite the speed record.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Nonetheless, it wouldn't have been possible without your help, and this is a small way of showing appreciation. :) Thanks for your help!
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Oops. I spoke too quick. It only works once, and then it won't do any more.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
I honestly Don't know how that control works, I guessed but it seems I was wrong.
Re: Would love help in open source HTML editor
Does anyone else have an idea?
