We're looking for a .NET component for HTML editing in WinForms. I've seen this post, and that's kind of what we're using now, but it's pretty old and crufty, I'm looking for a cleaner solution. I don't really have the time (or right now, the inclination) to write our own from scratch...and am hoping there's a commercial/free solution out there. I've looked at the Netrix Component and am not overly impressed initially...is there anything else out there?

    Hm, I'm fine w/ closing as off-topic, is there a place to go to ask for component recommendations like this one? – Jonas Sep 02 '14 at 21:01

You may try .NET Win HTML Editor Control from SpiceLogic, it is not free, but highly featured. Here is the link:

And here is an image with feature highlights.

There is a pretty decent free one at...

http://windowsclient.net/articles/htmleditor.aspx

It has limitations...but then again...it is free. I have used this control for a couple of non-commercial applications.

  • This is actually the one we're using now (albeit very very very heavily modified) :) – Jonas Jun 03 '09 at 21:24
  • I did read your link to that post...but it seemed like a different control. The namespace for the one I referenced is Microsoft.MicrosoftConsultingService.HTMLEditorControl. or something like that and that code sample is referencing WebControl rather than HTMLEditorControl. Anyway sorry for the misdirect. I think to get better than that one your gonna have to cough up some dough. Good Luck. Seth – Seth Spearman Jun 04 '09 at 01:16
  • The hyperlink in your answer doesn't work anymore. – ChrisW Nov 14 '12 at 15:26
  • Here's another link to an [HTML editor](https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/WinForms-HTML-Editor-01dbce1a/sourcecode?fileId=25712&pathId=371288050) on MSDN; not sure if it's the same as the one in the answer but does the trick! Looks as though it pulls from the mshtml library (IE). – Richard Ockerby Mar 20 '18 at 09:28

I love xstandard myself. Not cheap, but damned good for everything I have used it for.
