Question

Hi, I''ve donloaded a trial version of Essential Suite yesterday. I am evaluating it for a potential project and we need an applicaiton which can be pushed data from a server and display as a web page. I started off with the HTMLUI Editor demo which at first seemed ok. I put in the following html and it rendered it no problem:

The problem comes when I try to add another cell between As soon as I type < the app freezes and finally comes up with "not responding". As I''ve only been looking at the software for about 10 minutes I''m not sure if its me or the application. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Steve

Hi Steve,

We regret for the problem with the Editor sample.

The sample tries to create a HTML document with each keystroke and that results in invalid HTML documents passed into the HTMLUIControl. Thank you for pointing us to this issue. I have asked our development team to look into this issue so that the control does not freeze when a invalid document is loaded.

We will also change the sample so that the HTMLUIControl is not updated with each keystroke.

Thanks,

Davis
