Need a text scroller that will work on both a browser and iPad

General discussion

I am creating an application that will be the "Browser" front end to an existing MS Windows Client/Server app. I want to accomplish two goals at the same time: Support both browser and iPad. (Not iPhone, which has a screen that is too small for my needs) I have been using the "Mobile" version of your components, only because they look great on the iPad. I guess they are not completely necessary, because the iPad renders ordinary "non-mobile" IW and CGDevTools controls good too, but they don't look as nice.

So, I have a very lengthy "Terms and Conditions" document that the user needs to scroll down through whether they are on a full sized desktop screen/keyboard or in an iPad (so the same component must respond to touch as well. Please keep in mind that the text is actually HTML so "RawText=True" is the setting I used for the TMS component I was using for this. I'd like to change all my components over to CGDevTools if possible.

What CGDev component will work for me in this situation? It must respond to touch if on the iPad or have scroll bars if on the PC. It must allow lengthy text, and allow the user to scroll down/up. (not necessarily left/right)

Note: In my MS Windows app, I would use a TMemo component. I would load all the text into the component and scroll bars would appear as needed, to allow viewing right to the bottom of the text.

Hi Red :)

We are adapting JQMEdit control, EditType = textarea, to not expand automatically for the necessary size.
