Online gui editor
Hi,
I want to develop an online gui editor which can be used to create forms dynamically. I want to support drag and drop functionality and the users will have a toolbox, from which they will drag any field (for instance textbox) and drop it on the form. By clicking on the widget, the users will see the properties like name, id, width, height, coordinates etc.. They can modify the values and save the form with a name. When they want to get the form back, it should be exactly the same as they designed. In short, I want to have some thing like the VB / VC++ form editor. Is this possible. If so, Is there any way to do this? I tried to search the net, but most of the editors that i saw was unable to support any fields, though they support text and tables. if there are any articles, please let me know. Mani |

I want, I want, I want...
![]() Can we assume from this that you don't actually want to have to do any work on this project? I.e. you want someone else to code it all for you? Ha! Not gonna happen sunshine... I've just done one of these in JavaScript as part of my final year project at Uni. Believe me, you do not want to be making one of these just for fun... ![]() Why re-invent the wheel, just f***inggoogleit.com for htmlArea or something similar, and adapt to suit your needs... <edit>Interesting, the swearfilter doesn't seem to be in effect... I'll filter it out myself for the kiddies... ![]() |

Thanks for your courteous reply Agent 47. I am not asking for any code.
I am totally new to the web stuff and I dont know much HTML or javascript. yes, definitely I dont want to develop nothing for fun. I ask for help since I dont know. If you know how to do it and if you can give me a piece of advice please let me know. if you cant help or if you are not interested, thats okay, there may be others willing to do it. This is not reinventing the wheel. I have searched a lot before posting this and I havent seen anything similar to what i need. your text area can be useful only for pure text pages and I need something more powerful than that. I need a gui editor which can support any html field type like textboxes, checkboxes and the like. Any information in this regard will help me a lot. More specifically, I am looking for information on how to handle the coordinate system, how to save the current coordinates and get them back. |
