CF_eWebEditPro

EWebEditPro is a web-based, WYSIWYG second generation editor for web content, allowing content managers to create and edit web pages in a word processor-like environment directly from a web browser.

Circa 3000 supports the eWebEditPro tag as a free service to our hosting customers. However, eWebEditPro is a commercial product that requires a license key, available for purchase from the product's creators at Ektron, Inc..

Locale
The URL of the localization directory or file. [For details, see “Customizing the Language of eWebEditPro” on page 10 of the Developer's Guide.]

Options
The URL of the options XML file. Although this ActiveX control property can contain the XML content, it typically refers to an XML file. [For details, see “The Options XML File” on page 16 of the Developer's Guide.]

FTPServer
The destination URL for image files that users upload via FTP. With this ActiveX control property set, users can copy images from their client computer to the server.

An FTPServer address may be a domain name (ftp.mycompany.com) or an IP address (192.168.0.1). The URL may contain a path to a subdirectory, such as ftp.mycompany.com/images or 192.168.0.1/images. ImagesPath is not appended to FTPServer.

If you do not specify an FTPServer ActiveX control property, FTP is not permitted.

FTPUsername
The username needed to access the FTP site. Leave this ActiveX control property blank if you want to allow anonymous login.

FTPPassword
The password needed to access the FTP site. Leave this ActiveX control property blank if you want to allow anonymous login.

ImagesPath
This parameter can be used in one of two modes:

When used with FTPServer or PostingAcceptor:
Specifies the path to the images directory relative to the hostname. For example, if the images are located at “http://www.mycompany.com/images“, set the ImagesPath ActiveX control property to “images”.

ImagesPath is not appended to FTPServer.

When used on a LAN without FTP or PostingAcceptor:
Specifies the full path to the images directory on the server. The server must be accessible via the LAN. For example, "//web server/InetPub/wwwroot/images".

AllowCustomize
