custom button on rtb control Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on ASPFriends.com 'aspngrichtextbox' list. Eric Greenberg I would like to add a custom button to the toolbar of the richtextbox control. This button will essentially act as a hyperlink creator: the user will highlight a word, then click the custom button. A new instance of the rtb pops-up. User inputs content, clicks save, pop-up window closes. Now the word which is highlighted gets saved as a hyperlink linking to the content that was just created. The main point of my question is "does anyone have any information on adding a custom button to the rtb toolbar". I will figure it out from there, and I couldn't find any info regarding this on the rtb website (except a one sentence reference). Any help would be appreciated.

It's been requested by a fair few people so a future version will probably include it. As a workaround, you can add a button next to the RichTextBox and write client-side script to insert text into the document. If you are familiar with the DOM, you should find what you need at MSDN. RichTextBox is (currently) using an editable iframe, so take a look at the methods and properties on that, but please be aware I cannot guarantee that any code you write that hooks up with the control in that way will work with future versions. Does that answer your question?

It works really well for the scenario you describe. It also work well for crearing localized versions, e.g. a FrenchRichTextBox that is already configured with French text resources.
