Rich Text Editor updates

Jason:

Just in case you hadn't seen it yet, FCK Final Candidate was released yesterday. Might want to give it a shot; has a LOT of fixes. Also, the new templates feature and file manager are quite nice.

According to changelog:
The editor now uses the same method used on version RC2 to load its contents on Gecko. It is now possible to have more than one editor in the page. This change has a negative impact: the BaseHref property is not working.

Ok, I updated my branch with this new version (a CTRL-R in Firefox finally revealed the page updates on their site :roll: ) and it appears to have solved the multiple editor instances per page in Gecko/Firefox bugs. And the template option looks really cool!

Cool have you seen the FCK [[Placeholder]] plugin? It's the perfect template for creating an "Insert Snippet" FCK plugin

I haven't, but I'll check it out. Also, I just checked in the fix for saving TV richtext values with FCK in my branch. mutate_content.dynamic.action.php was the only updated file.

Hi Jason,

Here' some information on how to get TinyMCE to work with forms:

In tinymce setting extent the "extended_valid_elements" setting by adding the follow:

select[name|id|size],option[value],form[enctype|name|onsubmit|action|method|target|title],input[type|name|id|align|size|maxlength|value|checked|multiple|rows|cols|title|onclick]

I guess my next question is, shouldn't we provide these options as part of the configuration settings in the manager? I was planning on extracting all relevant options, and then reworking the editor settings tab based on this.

Sure sounds great to me

Well so far the FCK Template feature is taking the community by storm.

Here's what I've found on the forums:

To use templates only for parts of the editorarea (in my case: insert
image
within a div, specially formatted and styled ... without touching the
rest of
the editorarea), just open "dialog/fck_template.html" and change line
161
"FCK.SetHTML( FCK._Templates[index].Html ) ;"

to

"FCK.InsertHtml( FCK._Templates[index].Html ) ;"

Now templating behaves like inserting an object!

Maybe we should call it "Insert Template" and add a "replace content" checkbox to the form to replace all the content otherwise it will add to it?
