Bug report: no empty value on firefox

[Almog]

I used on the last ver of the fckeditor(Night build), and when i set the value to ""[empty] on firefox the value become to "<br>".

This bug makes some problems, start by the empty checking(& I have to "igonore" it by php) and continue to char counting.

I hope to find an any solution.

Best regards, Almog Baku,

Could you try reproduce it with current Night build? How you set an empty value?

Patch to handle dangling BR tags

[Noah Botimer]

Attached is a patch to FCKXHtml._AppendNode(). It ensures that, when EnterMode = br, the padding node is not returned by FCK.GetXHTML(). This fixes two specific symptoms:

1. Editors with no content in WYSIWYG mode are submitted with a single BR tag
2. FCK.GetXHTML() is dirtying the content by tracking the padding node improperly

This is also related to ticket #1150. The attached patch does not resolve the issue where Select All followed by a backspace while EnterMode = br leaves a dangling BR that is not the padding node.

This scenario can be exercised with Sample 12. Steps to test:

1. Select EnterMode = br.
2. Select Source mode
3. Remove all content
4. Return to WYSIWYG mode
5. Click Submit

With this patch, there should be no submitted content on the result page. Without it, there will be a stray <br />, which has been stripped of the bogus node attributes (as a result of #1150 / [2219]).

FCKeditor was retired and is no longer supported. All active development was moved to its successor, ​CKEditor 3.x, that is a fully mature and far superior product. We recommend you upgrade as soon as possible.
