off-the-shelf control for text entry/commenting in asp classic and asp.net

Question

I've got an application that allows multiple teachers to comment on a single student's writing and would like a rich web control that allows those comments to work like Word. That is, I'd like for teachers to be able to enter comments on particular passages and have those comments show, with the teacher name, when the student reads the essay.

I'd like to purchase or use an existing library to do so; are there any such controls out there that would work with ASP classic or ASP.NET?

Answer 2

You might be interested in the technology used by BookGlutton.com. See their platform/API page for possibilities in using it in your own environment.

FYI -- there's a nice write up about Book Glutton on NPR -- that's where I originally heard about it.

Answer 3

I recently found this suite of controls that look good. Specifically, this is the HTML editor that might be what you're looking for: OBOUT HTML Editor
