What do I need to do to get the new ajax HTML Editor to work as a sharepoint content editor web part?

Microsoft just released several new ajax controls including the ajaxed HTML editor.

http://www.asp.net/learn/Ajax-Control-Toolkit/tutorial-50-cs.aspx

I would like to try this in Sharepoint (since the built-in Sharepoint one is terrible (no cross-browser at all and flaky on IE) I tried Telerik for free but it was not very stable.

I guess it won't be too difficult to get control of the page, but how can I make sure the resulting HTML file is stored in the Sharepoint (tm) path?

thanks

If you intend to replace the standard SharePoint text editor, you will likely find it much easier to use jQuery than the ajax management toolkit. MS ajax controls have a server component - you can get it into a custom column type, but it will be much easier if you just replace the textbox with something better client-side.



Standard control works in a similar way - a standard text file containing html is created on the server, and javascript is used to hide it and connect to a rich text editor.

You really have nothing to do to format HTML for SharePoint. If you're working with field control, you can expect SharePoint to strip out a lot of HTML from your control.
