Introduction

edit-on® Pro is a cross-platform WYSIWYG XHTML/XML editor as a Java applet, allowing individuals and teams to update, create, and publish web content to any Internet or Intranet site. The editor has an easy-to-use, intuitive user interface which provides word processor-like and XML editor-like features to web based applications, empowering non-technical users to become content contributors without knowing XHTML, XML or other cryptic markup languages.

Configured to the precise editing functionality required within a web based application, edit-on Pro allows content authoring while maintaining corporate design and site standards for style, layout and code, thus allowing control of site content and integrity. RealObjects edit-on Pro creates valid XHTML which guarantees portability, compatibility and interoperability of data with other systems. Thus, content can be easily parsed and automatically transformed using XSLT.

RealObjects edit-on Pro features an extensive API that allows full customization of the look and feel, easy configuration and seamless integration into web based applications. The functionality includes CSS support, DTD based validation and definition of custom XML tags, CSS based read-only elements and areas, real-time spell checking – as you type - including 17 dictionaries, localizable multi-language support, table support, cut and paste, drag and drop, context-sensitive menus, fully customizable toolbar, pull down menu and keyboard shortcuts, real-time character counting and limiting.

A tree view allows the navigation within a document’s structure to edit the attributes of all elements with DTD guidance. The editor's user interface and XHTML content created are designed to meet the W3C WAI and 508 accessibility guidelines. The Java Accessibility Bridge and common Windows screen readers are supported. RealObjects edit-on Pro is compatible with the most common Web browsers (Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Apple Safari etc.) and client OS, such as Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris.
