TJvHTComboBox instead of TComboBox

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Just a question?
Is it possible to change Tcombobox with an other one like TJvHTComboBox?
What will  TComboFormControlObj.Draw be in htmlsbs1? 
Is something more needed?

Just modify the type definition of ThtCombobox in unit HtmlGlobals.
All replacements for TComboBox should work.

I did it but it needs to change the canva draw in order to have the bold/fonts 
effects in the items.

Where do you get the bold/fonts infos from? 
While reading the options all tags are skipped.

I apologize for the delay. 
In TJvHTComboBox, each item (option in the combobox) can be defined with html 
code. That means that each item can be rendered with bold/italics/etc 
characters and images.
Changing the definition of ThtCombobox renders the item as simple text. So an 
event could possible provide a different rendering or TComboFormControlObj.Draw 
must be changed to use TJvhtcombox's draw routine.

dkounal,

TComboFormControlObj uses a control of type ThtComboBox, which is located in 
HtmlGlobals and derived from TComboBox or TTntComboBox. 

You might want to try to derive ThtComboBox from TJvHTComboBox instead. Please 
let me know, if that works.

Thank you.
