What's New In Version 1.3

Version 1.3 of the HTML Rich Text Area was largely rewritten. The goal was to provide a richer user interface, more features and improved techniques to allow programmers to interface with the component. The code is now based on the MSHTML Editing control rather then the DHTML Editing control. This provides for better integration with more environments.

Interface Change

To improve the HTML Rich Text Area it was necessary to change the programmatic interface. In version 1.3 the last three parameters were dropped off the constructor and are now encompassed by the HTMLRichTextAreaFactorySettings.js file. To call the HTML Rich Text Area V1.3 the follow syntax should be used:

new HTMLRichTextArea([FORM NAME],[WIDTH],[HEIGHT],[DEFAULT HTML]).Draw();

Also be sure to include the HTMLRichTextAreaFactorySettings.js file or a copy of it so that the HTML Rich Text Area can reference these settings.
