TinyMCE 2.0.0

[stefan]

For those interested in the TinyMCE editor: an updated module with the newest TinyMCE version has been released today.

Remarks: the module is quite large, since it contains also contains some documentation and all available language files. At the moment there is no configuration option for the language and it has to be specified manually in TinyMCE.module.php (e.g. insert 'language: "de",'  at line 143). I hope that I can address these issues in the next release.

For changes see changelog below.

Feedback welcome

I had problems after installing on 0.12.1 - it didn't show up in content editing. I could select TinyMCE as wysiwyg editor and change options but it wouldn't appear until I switched off 'Use TinyMCE compression module'. I also tried uninstalling and even deleting and re-installing. The tiny_mce_gzip.php file seems to be in the right place.

I have successfully used the compressor with previous versions of the module

Otherwise it's very good - I was using TinyFCK but the the cmslink plugin was what I missed compared to FCK.

Is there a plugin to run a tidyHTML or other formatting tool - after using various editors most of may pages' source is very badly formatted - usually no linefeeds or layout at all

In the TinyMCE forum I have read about problems with some configurations of servers and browsers - therefore the option to turn it off. Sorry, I can't help further - you may search in the TinyMCE forum.

You can try the 'Cleanup' button. This should tidy up your HTML code, but I don't have much experience with it. And I don't know if you could incorporate tidyHTML - probably yes, by using the 'cleanup_callback' (see documentation)

If you want to have formatted HTML, add the following line to TinyMCE.module.php:

Code: Select all

tinyMCE.init({
	...
	apply_source_formatting : true
});

Hi There

I have discovered a problem when entering {} cms tags into the content. TinyMCE converts the " into " and similarly for ' to #39;

So Tags like {cms_module ...} do not work.

Anyone any thoughts?

It used to work with single quotes. Anyone tried that?

[gordon]

single quotes dont work either... Although I now discover all the tags I have tried work without any quotes at all...

I dont know whats changed in this new version though.

G!

[gordon]

Just done some further testing, but some tags (especially parameter tags) need some sort of quotes to work...

Back to square 1...

There is indeed a problem with ' and " in TinyMCE. As far as I see, TinyMCE replaces these characters with ''' and '"'. I think they do this to produce valid xhtml (I'm no expert in this regard). Therefore, it is not possible to insert something like {cms_module name='Glossary'}. I see three possibilities to solve this problem, but probably others with more experience have to decide which way to go:

1. Patch CMSms or to be more precise: smarty class (see patch below - however I don't know, if there are side effects due to it)

2. Change the behaviour of TinyMCE to not replace ' and "  (i.e. change tiny_mce.js)

3. Add a save_callback to TinyMCE to replace ''' and '"' accordingly. Basically same strategy as  previous one.

Comments?

Regarding the quotes issue - there is a TinyMCE plugin here http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph ... tid=738747
that allows you to insert smarty tags and protects quotes. It also protects smarty tags that are already in a page. Unfortunately each time you run Preview it seems to delete a character after each { & } 

I fixed the compression problem (or it fixed itself) - when I reactivated it this morning it worked! I found some references on the TinyMCE forum about cache/page-reload , so it must have something to do with that.

Thanks for the layout tip.

Thanks for the hint of the codeprotect-TinyMCE-plugin. I tested it, but personally I find the solution not optimal (even with a fix for the deletion of the character ). Therefore, I investigated the problem further and implemented a solution (already in svn). I will release a new version of either today or tomorrow.

Great News!
I checked with the developer and the fix (line 121 1 instead of 2) is correct - he assumed a 2 character left/right delimiter.

I look forward to the new version

I was playing a little bit with svn.  Very nice looking.  Everything seems to work as intended, except that the image browser wasn't showing any of the files in uploads/images...

Keep up the good work!

Mmhh... strange. I think I need some help regarding this issue. Could you check once again with the latest svn version? Does the filebrowser (e.g. called from link dialog) show any files?

Do others also have the same problem?

[pinthenet]

Finally got time to look at the latest SVN - nice new features!
The file browser looks for files in $root_url/UserFiles then looks for subdirs Images/Files/Media, depending on what you are inserting. Not sure if that's just my setup (I was playing about with FCKEditor & TinyFCK before the new TinyMCE), but I couldn't find the right point to make it use /uploads as the base directory

Also, the '/" problem seems to be fixed - thanks for that too
