Rich text duplicates tag

Hi,

I’m having some issues with TV and Rich text.

On my template I have something like this:



And TV is defined as Rich text. When I write something on it, source code results on something like this:

<p><p>Some text</p></p>


Any ideas why is this happening? My page is not valid due to this errors.


Thanks in advance.

TinyMCE does this automatically.
Try this --> http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,28908.msg218397.html#msg218397

If you would start with a <h1> or something you would only have </p> in the end.

I usually use this:


That stops it putting it in a p tag

Hi,

Mrhaw, that’s it. Thank you for the link.

Paulp, I have styles applied to <p> tag, so I need <p> there


The link Mrhaw gave is the solution.


Thank you both.


Kind regards!

I solved the <p> additional tags, however, the problem now is that when I copy any kind of text (even text without any kind of style) it stays like this:



It applies additional <div> tags which removes my css font styles! Even if I remove formatting.

The only way it stays normal is write everything, which is bad for long texts that are already written.

Any ideas?


Thanks in advance.

PHx maybe can help you here!
Install PHx plugin

Then install a modifier snippet -> http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/PHx/CustomModifiers#phx:striptags
phx:striptags


Now use

Thank you so much.

I will try it right away.

Didn’t work. Stays the same.

And now I just found another issue. Sometimes, when I remove all the text, a white square appears and the sourcecode is this:



So there is definitly something wrong with my text editor!

As TinyMCE adds <p> tags to a rich text TV automatically, why not just leave them out of the template?

Because it is random! I have just restored tiny_mce.js and on the top TV text it’s normal and the bottom it’s <p><p></p></p>

Tiny is getting me crazy with so many bugs!

EDIT:

Okay, here’s the situation:

- On my tiny_mce.js forced_root_block is set to false
- I have installed phx:striptags and I’m removing <div> tags since I was getting additional <div> tags
- The way I’m using the phx snippet is: with `<div>` it doesn’t work and without the snippet it adds additional <p> instead of <div> (even with forced_root_block set to false!)

All this is weird to me.. it makes on sense at all! Initially, it was adding <p> tags and I set forced_root_block to false and it really removed <p> tags but than <div> tags appeared. To remove <div> tags I used the phx:striptags function and it wasn’t working.. I than changed `<div>` to ’<div>’ and the additional <div> tags are now gone.

So it’s all working for now but making no sense... because if I remove the phx:striptags the initial issue (additional <p> tags) appears again. The behaviour is a bit random and I’m afraid of that.


Best regards and thank you for all your support!
