DanBartels.CS.FreeTextBoxWrapper 2.0 Released

I finally updated my text editor wrapper control for CS2.0.  This version uses the same freetextbox.dll that cs ships with, and does not interfere with the operation of the standard FreeTextBoxWraper in any way.  I have included builds for both the 1.1 and 2.0 frameworks.  It will appear as "TemplatedFTB" in the options menu in the admin area.

If you aren't familiar with my FreeTextBoxWrapper; I incorporated the TemplatedWebControl into the FreeTextBoxWrapper...  By doing this, I expose a "Skin" file (an ascx file in the \themes\default\skins\editors folder) which allows you to edit the behavior of the freetextbox, including adding toolbar buttons, without editing the code.

You can download it here

(http://communityserver.org/forums/528069/ShowThread.aspx#528069 would be a good place to post if you are looking for support)

We are currently evaluating how best to include this functionality in CS 2.1

Thank you for doing this.  I was hoping you would update your Wrapper for CS 2.0.  I'll definitely be taking the DanBartels.Wrapper plunge this week (hopefully tomorrow) and will be reporting back on exposed .ASCX sweetness.

Good to hear from you Dave!

This is just the wrapper, I haven't updated my InsertImageFromGallery button yet, although the content selector in CS2 is a rough approximation (it will be getting a bit closer in 2.1)

Thanks, Dan.  Tonight's late-night geek session was dedicated to your wrapper.  I mighta mucked up something.  Will post details on your CS.ORG thread.

All,

Dave found that I had put the asp.net 2 freetextbox.dll in the main bin folder in my zip instead of the asp.net 1.1 version...  I updated the zip, sorry for any mixup...

Dan,

You have obviously got CAPCHA working for you in CS 2.0...

Any clues on how I can get a CAPCHA add-on?

Much thanks to any hints.

I have a copy of my Blog Captcha control availalbe for download

http://mycommunityserver.com/Downloads/CSControlGallery/tabid/57/ItemID/1/Default.aspx

There are others availalbe, which most likely work with more than blogs...  If you have comments enabled on a gallery, its important to run CAPTCHA there too...

These do not stop comment spam 100%, but they sure slow it down.

Dan,

Thanks for getting back to me! I actually found that Timothy over at: http://timothyhumphrey.name/cs/ already added a CAPCHA control into his little sweet suite of 3 components. I was already usin a previous version of his suite for the subdomain support, and happened upon it while checking back to his site for updates.

Thanks again,

I was wondering if you were planning on updating this wrapper for the newer version of FTB.  I am having problems with SSL and IE and heard that the latest version of FTB fixes this problem.  Any suggestions would be appreciated as well.

Thanks,
