Is there a search/replace AddOn type sample?

[David Thielen]

Hi;

Do you have a sample that does a search & replace as a custom dialog for your editor? If I have that code then I think I can implement what we need as that would show me both how to query the editor for text and to change text in the editor.

And I need to do it by creating my own ASP.NET controls that talk to the editor as we need to keep our part separate from the editor as we intend in the future to write a more powerful editor (handling tabs, margins, page breaks, etc.)

It's fine if all of our controls use your ASP.NET controls (that is our plan). What's key is to keep a simple interface between the editor and all of our controls so we can change the editor our controls talk to. So we would prefer that we have a way to provide asynchronous communication via JavaScript between our ASP.NET app and your editor.

thanks - dave

Hi David,

There are numerous ways to use the Editor's dialogs outside the Editor environment. All dialogs are user controls themselves and can be easily included on any ASPX page. Here are some resources that you can check in order to improve your skills and get deeper knowledge of the Editor control - http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/aspnet-ajax/editor/using-the-image-and-document-managers-outside-radeditor.aspx, http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/aspnet-ajax/editor/displaying-single-upload-control-in-the-filebrowser-upload-manager.aspx, http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/editor-add-custom-dialogs.html and a demo about customizing the built-in dialogs - http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/externaldialogspath/defaultcs.aspx. You can further investigate the help articles and the demos to get more of the features of the Editor.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
