Standards compliant TextBox
August 30, 2004
So I’ve got an idea for a project. It’s going to require a text box for entering and formatting text. Ideally in this day and age, you would want an option that produces standards compliant code. I know WordPress uses Textile and I really like it, but my project will be built in .Net and as such, I would like to support some Microsoft solutions for the textbox.
There seem to be two popular options: FreeTextBox and Active Up’s Html TextBox. Either of these would fit my needs perfectly. Except for one thing: When you switch to the HTML view in their samples, I’m immediately assaulted by the <font />. What gives? Don’t they know that the font tag has been deprecated and banished from all self-respecting sites?
Any other suggestions? Can Textile integrate into the MS .Net world?

*gasp* say Microsoft, Word, or .Net one more time and I’ll be forced to beat you with a stick
Can’t help it. Microsoft has paid the bills for far too long. You’ve got to give me some credit though, I went through the trouble to figure out how to install MySQL and PHP just to run WordPress. Venturing out beyond the fold into the Anything But Microsoft arena is a start. I like it so far, but can’t drop .Net in the foreseeable future.
