Does anybody know of a good free html editor's that works well in most browsers? I'm using visual studio 2005, if that matters.
Thanks,

http://www.asp.net/AjaxLibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/HTMLEditorExtender/HTMLEditorExtender.aspx - The HtmlEditorExtender is an ASP.NET AJAX Control that enables you to extend the standard ASP.NET TextBox control with support for rich formatting.

CKEditor is a really nice one. It's not especially for ASP.NET but they have stuff for ASP.NET and even for SharePoint if needed!

From memory it used to work well with UpdatePanels too. And yes it does work well in different browsers.
This one has been around forever and regularly updated. http://www.freetextbox.com/
Check here. I've found jHtmlArea nice to work with.

My questions are hypothetical, but hope I am giving all the info needed to answer them.
Are there any known compatibility issues when using Telerik ASP.Net controls and Microsoft Anti XSS library?
Will the usage of telerik controls affect the WCAG compliance in any way?
Have not worked with MS Anti XSS before, but if it works flawlessly with the MS AJAX Toolkit, it should work with the telerik Ajax controls, too. With regards to the WCAG compliance, I know a page on the telerik site which presents what level of compliance their controls support - view it here: http://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax/getting-started/tech-sheets-overview/accessibility-support.aspx
Unless Telerik is using AntiXSS, which seems doubtful, otherwise it would be distributed with it, it's not going to have any effect. If you're swapping out the default encoding using the various hacks around there, or the beta of 4.1 that may affect it, but without viewing the Telerik source there's no way to tell.
First off, I'm sorry if the title doesn't explain this very well.
I'm looking for an asp.net control that works similarly to the Visual Studio toolbox's auto-hide. In other words, when not needed, it can be "unpinned" and will slide off to the side of the screen. When needed, it can be opened and pinned to stay in place. I'd rather not do it myself using javascript if a (free) control already exists. Does anyone know of such a control? If not, has anyone implemented this type of functionality using a js library with good results? Any pointers?
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
The collapsiblePanel might work, I don't have any experience with it, but it's open source software from CodePlex.
I don't know of any free ASP.Net controls. But if you want to get it working using javascript you can do so with jQuery.
This post on StackOverflow shows how to get the autohide feature working
We use Telerik's RadSplitter. It is exactly what you are looking for.
Unfortunately, it is not free. But it worths checking out since their licensing is very flexible.

So I'm using jQuery Scrollable script , but it works only for IE and FF engines and it's not so good...
I can't find any other solution :(
But I can find jQuery Grid plugin for PHP
and ... jqGrid for ASP (what I want)
the very big trouble is 300$ :(
here is very confusing for me php/mysql example , I need asp/mssql
how to use free jQuery grid in ASP.NET ? :)
maybe there is some realized ways or Ajax ways ?
btw I also will not buy this awesome ajax rad controls :(
thank you.
Well, there is some code that I wrote for jqgrid 3.5 beta that makes things a little easier. I have not updated it since the beta. You can give it a try with the current version and let me know if it works and if not I will update it.
The jqGrid client-side (javascript) is licensed with dual GPL & MIT open-source licenses, so it is essentially free. Demos are here (against PHP backend, but any backend will work)
http://trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html
The ASP.NET and PHP versions have commercial licenses and are demoed here
here:
http://www.trirand.net/demo.aspx
So just pick what you need. If you need free, go with the client-side.

to maintain compatibility with a classic ASP system, I essentially need to build the equivalent of an ASP.NET datagrid (complete with read, insert and update capability) in Classic ASP, are there any tools out there that make this any easier than just simply handcoding tables? I'm fairly rusty at Classic ASP as well so an easy solution is much appreciated, thanks!

There are no pure "ASP" solutions to this. However there are plenty of commercial Javascript based AJAX backed data grids that can work from an ASP server.
What really are your "compatibility" requirements? Why not do this with ASP.NET?
Of course you might consider using a Silverlight Datagrid, you could make that work with an ASP backend as well.
I want to make my website look spiffy. Should I use jQuery, or what is better suited to be paired with ASP.net?
jQuery works very well with .NET.
I would highly recommend jQuery UI.
http://jqueryui.com/
JQuery compliments .NET quite nicely. Here is a good blog article that should get you started.
I've can say this with confidence - you can use jQuery with .NET with no issues. I do this all the time.
Absolutely. I don't know that it will necessarily make it spiffy as you asked, but it'll certainly ease your programming work.
AJAX will help with the "spiffiness".
You want really spiffy? Look at Silverlight!
Yes, you can definitely use JQuery for ASP.NET apps. Check out an introductory article on how to get started - Getting Started with JQuery
jQuery works as well with ASP.NET as with any other server platform, because it's just a set of client-side scripts. When you consider its daily usage (such as assigning Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat to jQuery calendar) the final code won't look as short and elegant as advertised. The server controls of ASP.NET AJAX have their own bonuses. In short: if you use ASP.NET and not going to change the platform try standard ASP.NET AJAX facility (possibly with AJAX Control Toolkit). Otherwise starting with jQuery can be much better investment.
