displaying email body as html in c# textbox

Question

I am imitating my email client on a asp page. I have a gridview that displays things like from,subject,attachments, and the body. The body is html. When I view it in the grid view and set htmlencode= 'false' i can see it correctly. However, I want to the display it inside a textbox, so it can edit and forward it or reply.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Answer 1

Load the HTML into a rich text editor to enable to user to edit it - be aware that most rich text editors out there are not designed to create email safe HTML and they will require a substantial amount of tweaking if you are going to support more than the most basic formatting.

Some example rich text editors:

您需要使用HTML编辑器/ TextBox ，我们使用的是DevExpress组件，质量很高但不是免费的，还有Telerik或Infragistics之类的替代品，还有免费的替代品...请参见此处： 最佳免费的wysiwyg html编辑器

You can try dinamycly add html code to page:

<div runat="server" id="myDiv">
</div>

and then set its InnerHtml property from the code-behind:

myDiv.InnerHtml = "your html here";

but with this way you cannot edit it...

if you are using Devexpress Controls,

you can use ASPxHTMLEditor.

It works exactly as your requirement is.
