WYSIWYG clean XHTML

Post by Hockey »

Using a default install, FCKEditor is the WYSIWY of choice, which is fine. But whenever I switch to source view and back to WYSIWYG I get horrible marked up style attributes...

Actually their just captilized so when I write

Code: Select all

position: absolute
and switch back and forth between views

Code: Select all

POSITION: absolute
Is the result, which is less than desirable for me personally :(

Also, I've noticed the editor occasionally spits out tags and other XHTML deprecated tags (at least according to my current doctype declaration)...

I assume, like most editor, FCKEditor has an option to force valid XHTML...but how do I enable it? :)

Have you tried TinyMCE as a replacement of FCK ? It could be the new "editor of choice" for CMSms v2.

there is an option in extensions -> fckeditorx to "Enable XHTML Formatting".

i haven't seen uppercase tags or attributes in the resulting source... other issues perhaps, but not that one. as a result of those 'other issues', i've personally gone to just a plain text box for editing, but that doesn't help the newbies out that would be lost without the editor.
