FCKeditor - show site style formats

[stratfd]

Using current CMSMS 1.0.3 and FCKEditor.
Have tried using the EditorAreaCSS config item to specify a stylesheet to use to display stuff in the editing window so it looks similar to my site (NB this is NOT trying to put styles into the style dropdown in the toolbar).

After many hours trying various config files and locations, I have still had no luck.

Is this feature broken? If not, can anyone shed any light on the correct syntax, file to edit etc.

Thanks in advance

I have the same problem and currently I have also no solution for this.

FCK editing area takes the styles from the stylesheets attached to the page being edited.

This is organised through

/modules/FCKeditorX/fck_editorarea.css.php

FCK's own area css at

\modules\FCKeditorX\FCKeditor\editor\css\fck_editorarea.css

is not used.

If you wanted to use this for some reason and add css styles manually you can change the following code in

/modules/FCKeditorX/FCKeditorX.module.php from

Code: Select all

$oFCKeditor->Config['EditorAreaCSS'] = $this->cms->config["root_url"].'/modules/FCKeditorX/fck_editorarea.css.php?id='.$templateid ;

to

Code: Select all

$oFCKeditor->Config['EditorAreaCSS'] = $this->cms->config["root_url"].'/modules/FCKeditorX/FCKeditor/fck_editorarea.css' ;

the same can be done if you wanted to add styles manually by reconfiguring the 'StylesXmlPath'
