This sample application will use TX Text Control ActiveX Server server-side and will run in both Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla-based browsers (such as FireFox) client-side.

I am currently working on a new sample application that will enable end-users to edit DOC and RTF files that reside on an HTTP server, using nothing more than their browser.

Many customers have asked me how to perform this seemingly simple operation, thus I took some time to figure it out.
I will publish a more detailed account when I am finished.
