Bertrand,

Thanks for the prompt response. The problem's solved though. The release that I had downloaded yesterday was indeed the latest one.

Problem was, the link that I mentioned in my previous post, refers to the new control as 'HtmlEditor'. However, the actual name of the control is simply 'Editor'. I sorted the controls in the toolbox alphabetically(always do that) and looked up only the items starting with 'H'. Naturally, couldn't find it...

Ran a quick eye through all the controls in the toolkit today and found what I wanted. :)

@Navin: are you sure you downloaded the right release? The most recent one is:

Betrand,

Thanks for this new release. However, I'm facing a problem.

This link www.asp.net/.../Default.aspx says that one of the new controls provided in this new release is HtmlEditor. I downloaded the toolkit & added the controls in my toolbox. However the HtmlEditor control is absent.

Am I missing something here?

@Buzz: I apologize about the delay. We'll try to get a new release out as soon as we can.

@Bertrand Le Roy

Thanks for the reply.

I was not thinking about new controls, but fixs to existing ones. Such as the rating control can not centre justify in a div (it always floats left) in IE8 and firefox 3.05 (ok in IE7).

We can see various issues have been fixed, looking at the issue tracker, but I don't want to download a version which may not be a stable release.

@Buzz: just look at the great controls that have been added since the last release. In particular, last week, we got a fantastic rich text editor, which was in very high demand. We will try to do a new release soon, but you can already download the latest source code drop and compile it to get the new controls.

Next preview of the Ajax framework is next week

-------------

The toolkit is great. but I feel like we have been left in libo with the status of the project with the last release being on the 20 Aug 08 which was forced due to the 3.5SP1 framework update.

I dont have an issue with the time between now and the previous update, its the lack of information thats the problem. The toolkit project shows their are no planned releases.

Can we please have a date for the next planned release and what has been/will be done in the next release.

@Rshaikh: yes, you would need to build a sample page with all the controls and then run the profiler, but that's probably the easiest way to get the full list of scripts in the right order.

Yes every apps don't need whole set, but our application is very large and each app teams develops different application, we can't track who is using which control. For profiling we need to put all controls in one page and then run profiler.

We want to make one js file for all controls and cache it for whole applications.

Thanks

@Rshaikh: very few applications need the whole set of controls. One thing you can do is use the profiling tool to generate the combined file you need, in the right order. www.codeplex.com/.../ProjectReleases.aspx
