I had a very brief look at titan and inimeg but I don't think either
of those is capable of allowing users to type longform text into a
multi-line free text box.
They are actually capable of anything. Titan works almost exactly like
how HTTP input forms work, those are just wrapped up nicely in a GUI.
If you wrote a decent client for Titan then it would be
indistinguishable from an HTTP free text form. It could work like the
in-browser Wikipedia editor and edit an existing page (which is what
it's currently used for), but it also allows you to just submit
arbitrary text and your server can make use of a Titan upload however it
wants (add the text to the end of a page as a comment, etc.). It's just
a matter of there not being much good support or software for it right
now.
I've seen this titan protocol mentioned a few times on the list, but Ican't seem to find any info on it.Have you got a link to somewhere with info on it?Thanks in advance.
