Hi there,

I'm trying to develop an aspx website to dynamically generate HTML pages made up of predefined elements stored in a database.

Basically the generated pages consist of elements occupying 50% of the width of the page, and elements spanning 100%.
I'd like to create a drag and drop interface allowing users to drag the predefined elements to a 'layout' grid containing two columns. One for the left part of the generated html file, and one for the right part. The dropped elements should then be edited by the user so that he/she can input values like name and id for each dropped element.

Any suggestions which controlls to use and how to use them?
Thanks in advance.

Erik

Hello Erik,

I think that you can use our Sitefinity CMS to attain the functionality you are searching for. It takes advantage of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and RadControls for Silverlight and can serve the purpose you depicted out-of-the-box.

Hello Sebastian,

The interface in the 'create a page' section of sitefinity is EXACTLY what I'm looking for. But here's the catch;
Users will not use the future application to create web pages for the particular site. They will be creating HTML files for use in their own applications. So the HTML files they create will need to be downloadable (exported).
