Would You think it's a good idea to implement a mouseover image as addition to the current image dialog. I would like to use mouseover images. For me an option would as well be to let the file browser return an array with the image and the mouseover image and let the dialog handle this, but I can imagine that for the editor it is more efficient to add an extra image field

Hi! Thanks for this nice application!

Hi.

There should be a button that insert BR with CLEAR="ALL", and there should be a placeholder visible in FCKeditor for that tag as well. And eventually possible to use other values as well, such as LEFT or RIGHT instead of ALL.

Let say you insert an image or table and make it either left or right align so text can wrap around the object. ​http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1296087&group_id=75348&atid=543656 Let say you write some text left of inserted object (if you right aligned the object above), but not so much text that the text are continuing below the object.

If you now want to continue writing another section from a place below the inserted object above then you would (today) have to insert multiple normal line-breaks <br /> in order to get to the bottom of the right aligned object. (or have I missed something here? )

IMHO that is not the correct way of doing it. And I think the correct way would be to insert one:

<br clear="all" />

to continue writing after the right aligned object.

( if one use <br /> tags to get below the object then this would not nessesarily look very good if the content is displayed in a container that is wider or narrower than the editor area when writing.... which of course is very likely to happen )

Okay.... writing a plugin that creates the button and the function that insert the needed <br clear="all" /> should not be to hard, but would be nice if FCK could do this as I also want to see a nice placeholder for the new tag... something similar to the placeholder for the Anchor.

I noticed that if I add the following to the source: <div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; width:200px; height:115px; z-index:1; left: 146px; top: 90px;">Here is a floating layer</div>

Then click OK.

If I click on the layer in the editor window, I am able to use the handles to resize the layer, and move it's absolute position. Since the capability to manipulate floating layers is already in the editor, why not add a button that will either insert the layer in the editor, or convert the selected text to a floating layer, or whatever?

It would also be a good idea to insert code for a right-click feature to change the layer info such as ID, etc.

This floating frame capability would make FCKEditor one of the very few editors with this feature. I have yet to find one that has this feature that works in Mambo/Joomla.

Cheers.

I know FCKeditor is not phpMyadmin, but really irks me is not having one file only to make configuration changes. Diving deep to find the right config file to activate uploading, for example, is a pain.

The current implementation of Protected Source puts a comment like <!--{PS..0}--> so the user has no indication that there is something special there or any way to change that content except switching to source code and finding it there.

A great improvement would be to show an icon in those places, like it is done with <a> anchors. And secondly be able to edit the protected code in a popup window.

Hi,

I think personally it would be great if the source code view had wrap="off" to prevent line breaks where the source code actually continues and also the ceaseing of line breaking charactar striping so that you can indent source code and make new lines in the code without that disappearing on "OK".

Example.

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
alert('yay!');
</script>
<?php
echo "Hello again!";
?>

--> Upon click becomes

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
alert('yay!');
</script> <?php
echo "Hello again!";
?>

That line breaker should be left intact?!

Thanks! Keep it up, love 2.2!

For example, I may be an English user who has the task to writting / edit content in French. I'd still like the English toolbar (as that is my mother tongue), but would like to be able to spell check the document in the language it is composed in.

This would be very helpful.

Hi there, it would be a really nice default behavior if the save button could "dim" immediately after a save, and reactivate on a change to the editor contents. In other words, behaving like typical desktop apps.

(In my case, I am submitting the form via an iframe without refreshing the whole page.)

Similarly, it would be nice if I could programmatically dim/reactivate the Save button -- such that when another field in my form changes, I can reactivate the Save button in the editor.

I've noticed that an ongoing issue for many is that setting up file and image upload is difficult. Part of the reason is there is no documentation about how paths to the File etc folders are created, and also there is no feedback if you get it wrong - nothing to help with fixing it.

In using the plugin ImageManager from Zhuo, I noticed that it was much easier to fix config problems with upload directories because the code reports, when it can't access the directory, giving the url that it is trying to use. With just that little bit of feedback, you can usually fix the problem quickly.

If FileManager had some inscreen display, similar to this, I suspect that a lot of those "help me with file upload" problems would go away - or at least some good suggestions could be made for peeple who get the error.

I suggest this as a high priority, since I see many people spending a long time fixing this (and a number giving up after hours or days and not being able to fix it) - and my own experience of 2 days worth of frustrating debugging, trying different upload plugins and code hacking, before I could figure out enough to fix the problems I was having.

The waves of relief and gratitude from implementing this feature would be massive :-)

Dear Fred and developers,

The Find would be better able to -

1. show finding status like '10 matches found.' *If matches > 1, the value of find button 'Find' changes to 'Find Next' after user has searched the first match.

2. search again from the beginning if desired word is not found.

[Currently, it starts searching from the cursor point.

For example, we have 3 words - hello. We place our cursor at the back of the last hello. Search it. Find none!]

In this case, the find function should check that

• the cursor should be at the first position.

Dear Fred and developers,

Currently the FCKeditor has 4 drop-down menus

1. Style
2. Format
3. Font
4. Size

I'd like to suggest for Font drop-down menu. That menu currently has 6 fonts. Definitely, there are times when user wants to define his desired font not listed in the menu. If so, how to do ?

Simple. Just add a new item named 'Add custom'

which asks user his desired font name and adds code to the text area.

Similarly for font-size, there are times when user wants to define his desired font size not listed in the menu.

By the way, the labels 'Style’,’ Format', 'Font', and 'Size' would be better in the drop-down index 0 for the sake of spaces in the editor toolbar - we can even add more buttons at that line, resulting more precise toolbar.

Thank you so much for your time, consideration and hardwork.

Dear Fred and developers,

We can add more smiley icons by providing 'more' link.

Even if the icons are dozens, the more link can also be enhanced by dividing categories presented as a drop-down menu.

Dear Fred and developers,

The button will work like Format Painting button in word application.

First, the user needs to select some text. [Yeah, the button is disabled by default till user selects some text.] The function will copy the format used in the selected text. Then the button is in pressed state.

Ok, now the user can select some texts he wants to format-paint or just drop cursor at top of some texts to do so.

Thank you so much for your time, consideration and hardwork.

Dear Fred and developers,

Currently, the color picker in FCKeditor is basic. [ I'm not degrading it!] There are already some great JavaScript Cross-Platform Color Pickers on the web. Please inherit any one you feel great.

Thank you so much for your time, consideration and hardwork.

It's common for toolbar buttons in other applications to do a default action if you click on the button face, and only drop a panel (as FCKToolbarPanelButton does) when you click the arrow -- if there is one. At present, FCKToolbarPanelButton doesn't maintain the distinction between dropping down the panel and making a default action.

Enclosed is a patch to enable ToolbarPanelButton to pass to the toolbar command object whether or not the user clicked the dropdown arrow or the face, so that the command object can behave accordingly. This also adds the ability for ToolbarPanelButton to be context-sensitive -- necessary if you're implementing things like UL and OL.

Also enclosed is a plugin that uses the patched functionality. The plugin overloads FCKTextColorCommand so that the last color you used is the default action on the button face. It also adds DropOL, DropUL, and DropFontSize to use the same functionality to provide dropdowns for setting your OL/UL styles and font sizes.

In local testing, the patches to ToolbarPanelButton are sufficiently encapsulated so as not to break existing ToolbarPanelButtons.

I believe the language of FCKeditor user interface has to be identical to the language of the page that contains an FCKeditor instance.

But if one set FCKConfig.AutoDetectLanguage = true ; the result will depend on the browser that a user use to browse Web.

In IE the FCKeditor language is identical to system locale settings. In Firefox it equals the value of general.useragent.locale property (see about:config). In Safari it is always English (at least on Windows).

Btw, there is no way to know the language of the current page.

So is it really useful option?

Each connector uses it's own config file, perl's not. And correct me if I'm wrong, it contains a possible security hole here:

	if($FORM{'ServerPath'} ne "") {
		$GLOBALS{'UserFilesPath'} = $FORM{'ServerPath'};
		if(!($GLOBALS{'UserFilesPath'} =~ /\/$/)) {
			$GLOBALS{'UserFilesPath'} .= '/' ;
		}
	} else {
		$GLOBALS{'UserFilesPath'} = '/userfiles/';
	}

by sending malformed ServerPath we can make some bad things. I think that it would be good to adjust perl connector to our standards (so that ServerPath could be defined in cofig file, not as a part of url) and btw. it would be good to make it's own page in ​http://wiki.fckeditor.net/ (Integration section).

It would be nice to have a feature to manage definition lists. For example:

<dl>
   <dt>blackbird</dt>
   <dd>A black bird with an orange beck, often found in gardens.</dd>

   <dt>sparrow</dt>
   <dd>A small, brown/grey bird, often found in gardens.</dd>
</dl>

<dl> opens the definition list, <dt> lists the term and <dd> tells the definition. A special type of list, that is starting to get used more and more.

Reported in ​http://www.fckeditor.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7251

When the cursor is placed next to (as IE puts it) a "control" element, such as an image or a table, it should select it on delete / backspace.

This improves the intuitiveness of deleting and makes sure people dont delete things accidently.

Here is a function partially implemented which does this

FCKListsLib.ControlElements = {'img':1, 'table':1, 'input':1};

// Helper function upon deleting a node that may be a control (must select it first)
// A control is something like an image or table which can be selected with the cursor
FCKEnterKey.prototype.HandleControlNodeSelect = function(pRange, bIsForward)
{
	// Check to see if we are about to delete an image or table
	// TODO: this is IE specific at the moment!
	if(FCKBrowserInfo.IsIE)
	{
		// TODO: this only works when a element is in a block
		var pStartBlock = pRange.StartBlock;

		if(pStartBlock)
		{
			var iDirection = bIsForward ? 0 : -1;
			var iOffset = pRange._Range.startOffset;
			var pPrevious = pStartBlock.childNodes[iOffset + iDirection];

			if(pPrevious && FCKListsLib.ControlElements[nodeGetTagName(pPrevious)] != null)
			{
				FCKSelection.SelectNode(pPrevious);
				return true;
			}
		}
	}
	
	return false;
}

The current default does not seem very sensible - right-clicking on a <th> table heading cell and inserting a row after adds another th row rather than a td as would be expected.

Undo works like a charm, but when resizing an image this cannot be undone with the undo system. It would be great if this would be incorporated.

See ​http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/1511#comment:20 for reasons why this issue has not been fixed.

My site uses css to define some default tables. fckEditor table dialog can not overwrite the css system, because the css has prioiry over html atributes. We have recoded the table dialogs to add css rules dynamicly to the page. Files attached with code and screen dumps.

Usefulness of the "Replace" tab of the Find/Replace dialog is greatly diminished without a "Find Next" button. To be selective about search and replace requires both tabs with their separate search fields. (You must enter what you're looking for twice)

Perhaps I'm missing something, but I think the find / replace tabs could be combined in a dialog with no tabs while being more useful. If the "Find Next" button was added to the replace tab, it could concurrently serve all Find / Replace purpose as a simpler, more intuitive and easier to use tab-less dialog. (e.g. Like the "Edit | Replace..." dialog of Notepad.)

Up / down radio buttons could also have significant value if this dialog must be modal, unlike being modeless with Notepad. (or like an always on top floating dialog of the kind I see targeted for v2.6)

BTW: Replace tab isn't selected (at least in IE7) on pressing the 'Replace' toolbar button, but the above suggestion would make this irrelevant.

I have a custom style with a foreground of white:

'custom1' : { Element: 'span', Styles : { 'font-family' : 'Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif', 'font-size' : '11px', 'font-weight' : 'normal', 'color' : '#FFFFFF', 'line-height' : '16px' } },

this style is invisible in the styles drop down, because the styles drop down list shows what the style is of each style, so my custom style with a text color of white is invisible because the background of the drop down list is white also.

I would try to detect this and if so change the text color so users can see it, sort of like how dreamweaver does it.

I will include screenshots.

(Maybe this is an enhancement request)

Browsers: Firefox 2.0.0.11 (win+lin), IE6+7

Shortcuts for undo and redo works fine when in source view, but the toolbar buttons is deactivated. The "Select all" toolbar button is active and it would be nice to have the undo/redo buttons active as well.

The color that Underline and Strikethrough take is inconsistent. Consider these two examples:

• begin typing text
• switch Font Color to Red
• Select 'Strikethrough,' type some more

Result:

The strikethrough is red.

• Type some text
• Highlight the text, change the color to Red,
• With the selection still highlighted, select 'Strikethrough'

Result:

The strikethrough is black.

Reversing the order in which styles are added in both scenarios produce the opposite result.

Expected behavior should probably be that the strikethrough and underline always take the current color of the text.

Hello. I've tried to find this kind of feature request without any success. So I think it will be very useful if the webmaster will be able to setup initial HTML code for the "blank" page created by the "new page" button. In this case all important parts, such as css file + special headers and footers, which correspond to the site design, will be inserted into the new file automatically.

Thank you.

Since it is possible to set allowed/denied file extensions for all 4 file types, there properties should be checked everywhere a file is going to be upload.

For example, if you upload a file directly through the image plugin it checks for a valid extension. If you upload through the file browser, it does not check for extensions. It has to be made on the server.

This complete coverage would make it superfluous to check for the extension on the server-side.

In order to be accessibility compliant on a web site one should always use an alt text tag for an image. Is there any way that FCKEditor can require the tag be entered when an image is inserted?

Running several times

http://www.fckeditor.net/fckeditor/editor/filemanager/connectors/php/connector.php?Command=CreateFolder&Type=Image&CurrentFolder=/&NewFolderName=Mika

Results always in:

<Connector command="CreateFolder" resourceType="Image">
<CurrentFolder path="/" url="/_userfiles/image/"/>
<Error number="0" originalDescription=""/>
</Connector>

Instead of Error number="101" on the 2nd request

In \connectors\php\config.php when trying to add denied extenstions to any of File, Image, Flash or media it seems to do nothing and the file browser show all files in the directory.

$Config['AllowedExtensions']['Image']	= array('bmp','gif','jpeg','jpg','png') ;
$Config['DeniedExtensions']['Image']	= array('php','txt') ;

Look at the attached image

For this example the file browser still show php files in image directory in addition of any other file founded in the image directory.

The server is Apache and working on Windows XP SP2, in other word I use XAMPP 161.

I think this bug due to the way of dealing with the FileTypesAbsolutePath? and windows.

$Config['FileTypesAbsolutePath']['Image']= ($Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'] == '') ? '' : $Config['UserFilesAbsolutePath'].'image/';

In windows the absolute path does not represented as, for example, C:/server/site/ , but it should represented as C:\server\site\

Can you add functions for dealing with the <label> tag in forms.

Let's say I'm a newbie that want's to learn programming.

I have downloaded FCKeditor and run first samples.

I open "​file:///C:/path/to/fckeditor/_samples/html/sample01.html" in my browser and everything works cool.

But when I click on a file browser, I get a huge message with contents of the default PHP connector and an error message telling that an error occurred. It would be awesome if FCKeditor could check the url of the connector and when it starts with "​file:///" just display a generic eror message that you need to launch it on a live server.

To reproduce:

1. Open sample01.html in IE6 or IE7.
2. Switch to view source mode.
3. Paste the following code into the source area:

   <p>This is some <strong>sample text</strong>. You are using <a href="http://www.fckeditor.net/">FCKeditor</a>.</p>
   <fieldset><legend>title</legend>Here is some text</fieldset>
   

4. Switch to WYSIWYG mode.
5. Move the caret to the end of the first paragraph.
6. Click "Insert Horizontal Line" toolbar button.
7. JavaScript error.

It may happen that pasting operations inject nested <ol> and <ul> elements. The editor should fix it on output.

Steps to reproduce

1. Paste the following in the Source view:

<ol>
    <ol>
        <li>Test</li>
    </ol>
</ol>

2. Switch to WYSIWYG view.
3. Switch back to Source view.

The source remains untouched, but the following is expected instead:

<ol>
    <li>&nbsp;
        <ol>
            <li>Test</li>
        </ol>
    </li>
</ol>

Note that the &nbsp; is needed to properly expand the empty <li> bullet or number for editing.

In the php connector's io.php in Server_MapPath, apache_lookup_uri is used. If it fails for some reason, a warning is displayed and a wrong value is returned. This ends up with something like this:

<b>Warning</b>
:  apache_lookup_uri() [
<a href="function.apache-lookup-uri">function.apache-lookup-uri</a>
]: Unable to include '/../assets/pages/3076/Image/' - error finding URI in 
−
<b>
/home/myuser/web/mysite/common/fckeditor2.5.1/editor/filemanager/connectors/php/io.php
</b>
 on line 
<b>167</b>
<br/>
<Error number="1" text="Error creating folder "" (Can't create  directory)"/>

I am using this workaround which seems to work well:

		$info = @apache_lookup_uri( $path ) ;
		if ($info != null)
			return $info->filename . $info->path_info ;

In the link dialog, upon a click on "Browse Server" the current FCKeditor simply calls a uri defined by the configuration value

FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = "..." ;

Assume we defined a custom link browser. Of course we could use in our custom link browser the javascript command

opener.GetE("txtUrl").value

to access the current value given in the url textfield of the link dialog. But this is a client side action. Wouldn't it be great to have also a server-side possibility to know the current value?

I propose the following: Add some keys (placeholders) to the LinkBrowserURL which then gets replaced by the current values.

FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL = "custom.php?url=URL&proto=PROTOCOL" ;

Implementation: It is easy to implement this feature. In the file "editor/dialog/fck_link/fck_link.js" replace

function BrowseServer()
{
	OpenFileBrowser( FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL, FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowWidth, FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowHeight ) ;
}

by

function BrowseServer()
{
	var uri = FCKConfig.LinkBrowserURL ;
	uri = uri.replace( /URL/g, encodeURIComponent(GetE("txtUrl").value) ) ;
	uri = uri.replace( /PROTOCOL/g, encodeURIComponent(GetE("cmbLinkProtocol").value) ) ;

	OpenFileBrowser( uri, FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowWidth, FCKConfig.LinkBrowserWindowHeight ) ;
}

the following ads a handler to get the max height, and if FCKConfig.AutoGrowMax is not set and numeric, it will get the height of the viewpane. This thus dynamically sets the editor window height as one resizes the browser window. A nice addition to this would be to add a window onresize listener that would call autogrow when resized.

2.4-beta-1 does not have support for facelets.

META-INF/faces-config.xml

META-INF/FCKeditor.taglib.xml

need to be added to support facelets.

Allow developers to configure whether they want their users to be able to remove a link by leaving the URL empty in the link dialog.

For example a setting 'FCKConfig.LinkDlgRemoveLinkByEmptyURL' could be provided. The contextmenu should also listed to the setting and not show the unlink item when the setting is true; or perhaps another setting should be created to be able to specify this separately; or, yet another option, link and unlink could become separate items that need to be specified individually in FCKConfig.ContextMenu.

Removing the link can be easily done by not alerting an errormessage when the URL is empty but using 'oEditor.FCKUnlinkCommand.prototype.Execute();'. This needs to be done for the lines 493, 506 and 522 in 'editor/dialog/fck_link/fck_link.js'.

It would be nice to have a PHP application inside _dev which walks through our code and validates all HTML pages with the online W3C validation service.

In Firefox (2, and probably 3), resizing a table using the drag handles in the editor, will always use absolute (pixel) sizes, even if the table [and with the dragresizetable plugin enabled, columns] is originally set to use relative widths.

It should be possible to observe this change and either tell FF to use relative widths, or to convert to them.

Hi,

I have been having a bit of a problem in using numbered lists in FCKEditor.

I can create multiple lines of text, then select this text and click on numbered list icon on tool bar and convert the text to numbered list. So far so good, every thing appears to work fine.

Now if I select the items of the numbered list and change the font, only the font of the text that I had entered changes, but the font of the numbering (1, 2, 3, 4 etc appearing before each list item) stays as earlier. When I looked at the HTML source, I found that the font is getting applied to the content portion only (individually, inside the <LI> tag). For example, the source looks like:

<ol type="1" start="1">
<li><font size="4">This is item number 1</font></li>
<li><font size="4">This is item number 2</font></li>
<li><font size="4">This is item number 3</font></li>
</ol>

How can I get the font selection to be applied as:

<font size="4">
<ol type="1" start="1">
<li>This is item number 1</li>
<li>This is item number 2</li>
<li>This is item number 3</li>
</ol>
</font>

Thanks,

Anderson Gomes

At this moment it seems not very intuitive hot to assign SkinPath in PHP. To achieve path pointing to:

"/sub1/# CMS/sub2/"

ones have to assign:

"/sub1/%2523 CMS/sub2/"

...there must be an easier way to do it.

Lists should also be displayed by the "Show Blocks" command.

I love FCKeditor, but I hope fckeditor has a drop-down list of pre-defined styles instead of a text box for image style like tinymce: (in the "Image Properties", "Advanced" tab).

Thanks. Bob

I created an interface where an instancwe of FCKeditor needed to be placed inside of a div with overflow:auto;. When the maximize editor button is clicked the editor grows but not to full screen and a majority of the editor is covered by other page elements. I tested it with the latest release as well as the nightly download 8/19/08. There is a test site here using the nightly: ​http://dealerrevolution.com/admin/about.htm I also posted this on the message board: ​http://www.fckeditor.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10939&sid=330db56903f3061c42e7da0c701b4b08

Whenever I press the TAB key in the editor, the cursor jumps out, and onto the next form element (typically the submit button, in case of the FCK editor demos on fckeditor.net). If I press TAB in fullscreen edit mode, the cursor will seem to disappear, and whatever I type goes into the next field/button, while it's not visible.

FCKeditor may be installed as a third party software in a CMS (like Drupal for example). This CMS may offer such a a feature like "Automated check for updates".

The problem is that at this moment there is no way to make a similar thing for FCKeditor.

It would be great if we could notify users about critical/all updates as soon as they are released in other way than ask them to subscribe to a mailing list.

I have attached a XML file used by Drupal to check for updates.

Apologies if this is a dup, but I couldn't find anything similar when having searched.

FCKConfig.ProtectedSource.Add( /<\?[\s\S]*?\?>/g ) ;

lets me add PHP code, but only in the body-tag. PHP on top of the page (as "session_start()" should be) will be removed. This is according to XHTML rules, but means that no PHP developper needing the use of PHP sessions will be able to fully apply FCK.

I installed the latest nightly to test and have Fullpage=true.

The 'Select All' toolbar button can be used to select all content in the editor window. This works when the editor is loaded in a normal window or in a modal dialog window. However, although the Ctrl-A keyboard shortcut works in a normal window, it does nothing when the editor is running in a modal dialog box.

Versions: 2.6.2 OS: Windows XP Browser: IE6

Steps to reproduce:

Implement an instance of FCKEditor in a page, and load the page in a modal dialog box (Window.showModalDialog() in IE). Enter some text in the editor. Use the 'Select All' toolbar button, and note that all content is correctly selected. Deselect the content. Now press Ctrl-A. Note that content is NOT selected.

Load the same page in a normal window. Repeat the above steps. Note that Ctrl-A does now select all of the content.

When merging a row, adding text to the merged row and the next row, then selecting a background color for all cells in rows 1 and 2, an unwanted space is added above and below the second row. This occurs on IE 7 and windows.

Steps: 1 - Open the FCK Editor with a Full toolbar 2 - Insert a table of 3 columns and 3 rows 3 - Merge the three cells in the top row (right-click and select Merge Right), so there is a single row on top

[ ] [ | | ] [ | | ]

4 - Type values in the the first and second row (a total of 4 cells) 5 - Highlight the first and second rows, right click and select Cell/Properties 6 - Set a background color

Expected: Rows 1 and 2 would have the background color set Observed: Rows 1 and 2 have the background color set, but empty cells are created over the 2nd and 3rd cells in the second row

I checked the demo site and it is still an issue there.

Start typing some text in demo. Switch to some style that is actually span (Marker-green for one), type more, switch to Marker-yellow, type more, switch to Marker-green again - type and see that text continue to be yellow. So we can't swith to the first applied style when continue typing.

It would be awesome if FCKEditor came with a third mode for Ctrl + Shift + Enter.

I have recently encountered a situation where I needed to use all the choices (p, br, and div tags).

With a little bit of modification it is easily done (I just did it.) I'd prefer to not have to do it again when I upgrade though.

It works in FireFox 3, IE6, and IE7 that I have tested.

I suggest to add an option for automatic dispatching of uploaded files to different folders set in filemanager…config.php file according to the file type. For example, if an image is uploaded as 'FILE', it would be nevertheless directed to the 'images' folder (if set) and if a new file type such as 'PDF' is created in config.php for file extension 'pdf' with a 'pdf_folder' destination folder, then FileUpload function would send it to this folder.

I patched my version successfully by easily adding just the following two lines of code in filemanager…command.php (and moving down a bit an original one).

Before:

	if ( isset( $_FILES['NewFile'] ) && !is_null( $_FILES['NewFile']['tmp_name'] ) )
	{
		global $Config ;

		$oFile = $_FILES['NewFile'] ;

		// Map the virtual path to the local server path.
		$sServerDir = ServerMapFolder( $resourceType, $currentFolder, $sCommand ) ;

		// Get the uploaded file name.
		$sFileName = $oFile['name'] ;
		$sFileName = SanitizeFileName( $sFileName ) ;

		$sOriginalFileName = $sFileName ;

		// Get the extension.
		$sExtension = substr( $sFileName, ( strrpos($sFileName, '.') + 1 ) ) ;
		$sExtension = strtolower( $sExtension ) ;

		if ( isset( $Config['SecureImageUploads'] ) )
		{
			if ( ( $isImageValid = IsImageValid( $oFile['tmp_name'], $sExtension ) ) === false )
			{
				$sErrorNumber = '202' ;
			}
		}

After:

	if ( isset( $_FILES['NewFile'] ) && !is_null( $_FILES['NewFile']['tmp_name'] ) )
	{
		global $Config ;

		$oFile = $_FILES['NewFile'] ;

		// Get the uploaded file name.
		$sFileName = $oFile['name'] ;
		$sFileName = SanitizeFileName( $sFileName ) ;

		$sOriginalFileName = $sFileName ;

		// Get the extension.
		$sExtension = substr( $sFileName, ( strrpos($sFileName, '.') + 1 ) ) ;
		$sExtension = strtolower( $sExtension ) ;

		foreach($Config['ConfigAllowedTypes'] as $type) {	 // #PATCH: automatically dispatch uploaded files
			if($type != 'File' && in_array($sExtension, $Config['AllowedExtensions'][$type])) {
				$resourceType = $type;
			}
		}

		// Map the virtual path to the local server path. #PATCH: moved down
		$sServerDir = ServerMapFolder( $resourceType, $currentFolder, $sCommand ) ; // #HACK: original line moved down

		if ( isset( $Config['SecureImageUploads'] ) )
		{
			if ( ( $isImageValid = IsImageValid( $oFile['tmp_name'], $sExtension ) ) === false )
			{
				$sErrorNumber = '202' ;
			}
		}

filemanager…config.php sample:

// Allowed Resource Types.
$Config['ConfigAllowedTypes'] = array('File', 'Image', 'Flash', 'Media', 'PDF') ;
…
$Config['AllowedExtensions']['File']	= array('7z', 'csv', 'doc', 'gz', 'gzip', 'ods', 'odt', 'ppt', 'pxd', 'rar', 'rtf', 'sdc', 'sitd', 'sxc', 'sxw', 'tar', 'tgz', 'txt', 'vsd', 'xls', 'xml', 'zip') ;
$Config['DeniedExtensions']['File']	= array() ;
$Config['FileTypesPath']['File']	= $Config['UserFilesPath'] . 'misc/' ;
…
$Config['AllowedExtensions']['Image']	= array('bmp','gif','jpeg','jpg','png') ;
$Config['DeniedExtensions']['Image']	= array() ;
$Config['FileTypesPath']['Image']	= $Config['UserFilesPath'] . 'images/' ;
…
$Config['AllowedExtensions']['Flash']	= array('swf','fla', 'flv') ;
$Config['DeniedExtensions']['Flash']	= array() ;
$Config['FileTypesPath']['Flash']	= $Config['UserFilesPath'] . 'flash/' ;
…

$Config['DeniedExtensions']['Media']	= array() ;
$Config['FileTypesPath']['Media']	= $Config['UserFilesPath'] . 'media/' ;
…
$Config['AllowedExtensions']['PDF']	= array('pdf') ;
$Config['DeniedExtensions']['PDF']	= array() ;
$Config['FileTypesPath']['PDF']		= $Config['UserFilesPath'] . 'pdf/' ;

Line 61 in _source/internals/fcktoolbarset.js is

oOutMatch = sLocation.match( /^{Out:(\w+)$/ ) ;}

But this fails for ids with hyphens, underscores, periods and colons.

The fix will need to be applied on line 50 as well

Allow the addition of tags to be protected so that they're not modified by the editor.

However they should be displayed to the user (just as plain text) when they're in the regular mode without going into the source view to see them.

The idea behind this is to provide tags which are inserted by a custom toolbar plugin, and to have these appear in the editor's regular view, however they need to be protected and shouldn't be changed/removed by the FCKEditor when submitting the data.

In IE you can directly enter the file name to be uploaded. When entering a path to a non-existing file, the upload dialog shows a progress bar that never finishes.

Clicking on the [x] icon to abort the image upload does not work, so there is no way to continue editing the text.

Note: the same also happens when a response from the server is malformed. In this case, however, the request does not seem to reach the server, so that there is no way to fix it server-side.

Note: other browsers do not let you enter the file name directly, so that this problem is much less likely to occur (probably only when deleting the file after selecting it). Also, at least on Firefox, it is possible to close the image upload dialog while the progress bar is still on.

String.prototype.Trim (defined in fckjscoreextensions.js) should also remove the Unicode "Ideographic Space" (U+3000), which is used in Japanese.

String.prototype.Trim = function()
{
        // We are not using \s because we don't want "non-breaking spaces to be caught".
        return this.replace( /(^[ \t\n\r\u3000]*)|([ \t\n\r\u3000]*$)/g, '' ) ;
}

String.prototype.LTrim = function()
{
        // We are not using \s because we don't want "non-breaking spaces to be caught".
        return this.replace( /^[ \t\n\r\u3000]*/g, '' ) ;
}

String.prototype.RTrim = function()
{
        // We are not using \s because we don't want "non-breaking spaces to be caught".
        return this.replace( /[ \t\n\r\u3000]*$/g, '' ) ;
}

Add a new setting so that the tab character can actually be inserted in to rich text mode instead of X spaces. Many ways to do it such as:

FCKConfig.TabSpaces = -1; shows tab FCKConfig.TabSpaces = 0; disables tab FCKConfig.TabSpaces = 1+; shows spaces instead of tab

or add a whole new setting FCKConfig.TabShow = true; show tabs instead of spaces

Personally i do not like spaces, i prefer tabs since i have much more flexibility over them server side than spaces. Also when pasting source code i can delete a tab with one key press, not several. Copying code from the editor in to my IDE deals much better with tabs than spaces.

The only way to edit this setting at the moment is to edit the compressed source (not a good idea): ​http://www.fckeditor.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12443

Could you please add support for this?

Kind regards, Scott

There has been forum discussion asking for a Table of Contents plugin to the editor. This would be a helpful addition.

The Moinmoin community has created a TOC macro for Moinmoin:

​http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.7/file/956f6f4aa936/MoinMoin/macro/TableOfContents.py

However, this is written specifically for Moinmoin and is not universally applicable for any FCKEditor users. Having a universal TOC plugin would be very helpful if someone is willing to create one.

Hi :)

When adding Smiley faces in FCKEditor I have to search for the smile, choose it, and then click ok.

Would it be possible to simply type a smiley shorthand for core smiley faces (the common ones) -

:) :( :x

And have the smiley face replaced with the corresponding image? Shorthand could be designated in the config file.

When the user presses save this replacement is saved out also. I'm able to do this by manipulating the oFCKeditor.Value string before it is saved. I search for :) :( etc and swap them for images, but I can't show this in the Editor at the moment.

Thanks,

Rob

ie throws javascript error: Incompatible markup pointers for this operation

This occurs when drag and drop action takes place from the same browser window the editor is currently running. Additonaly the formating remains even with ForsePasteAsPlainText set as True.

Using FCKeditor version 2.4.3 with 2215.4.patch.

I have a jsp with 2 fields and a Submit button. The first field is a text field that is using the FCKeditor. The second field is a group of Radio buttons. When tabbing from the text field to the Radio button, a dotted line is placed around the selected Radio button to appear as if it has focus but the cursor remains in the FCKeditor field. I also see a similar problem when I place the Save button directly after the FCKeditor field where a dotted line is shown around the button but the cursor remains in the text fied.

If I add another text field following the FCKeditor field the tabbing works as expected. If I remove the reference to the FCKeditor from the page, I can tab from field to field as expected.

I am running on WindowsXP and have duplicated this problem in IE6 and IE7. I also downloaded the latest nightly build and I still see the problem.

Hi CKEditor developers,

I would like to be able to use the CKEditor in an opensocial gadget. Because of cross-domain problems is this not possible.

Opensocial is used for make applications on myspace, hi5, orkut and many others.
