APEX - html editor minimal

I have form items declared as html editor minimal on clob columns. When I copy & paste the text from word document into the form or type in the text, my session froze up. I have to kill it to get out. Does anyone have the same problem with html editor minimal? How can it be fixed?
Thank you so much,
MT

Never mind, I found the problem.

HTML Editor Minimal sporadically appearing

Hi,
Perhaps an easy problem to fix: I have three separate CLOB fields in one table and my Apex
form has three "HTML Editor Minimal" textareas for each respective field.
When I run the page, the position where the rectangular box ought to be (including the fancy style
buttons such as Bold, Italic and so forth) sometimes don't appear.
On other ocassions, these shapes appear on the screen but about five or ten seconds behind the
rest of the page.
I've tried waggling the mouse, clicking in the missing gaps, scrolling the screen but to no avail.
Other times, the right minimal editors appear fine and quite quickly. Problems seem to occur both
on Internet Explorer (v8) and Firefox (v3.6).
Any known "funnies" with such editors? Any known gotchas?
Thanks in advance
Mungo

any ideas are appreciated.
thanks,
Surya

HTML Editor Minimal item bug

I have item of type "HTML Editor Minimal". I tried to insert a link into the text area box, but it doesn't work in Mozilla. It brings up the pop-up page when I click the "insert link" icon, but it does not fill in lthe text area with link, however the link is inserted in IE. In my applciation, I'm trying to insert multiple links and save them in this text area, when the user edits the page next time I would like these links to be actual url which are clickable in the text area itself instead of cut &paste of the link in the brower address bar. but the saved links in IE are not actual url which are clickable, they are apprearing as text links. any ideas are appreciated.

Configure HTML editor Minimal

The HTML Editor Standard takes up a large space for a text field. I need only the "Insert Special Character" for many text fields on a form in the event the text needs diacritical marks. Is it possible to configure the "HTML Editor Minimal' to add the ""Insert Special Character" or is it possible to just use "Insert Special Character" alone with nothing else?

Hallo,
This is exactly what I need. Did you ever find a soltion for this?
Thx, Willi

How to create an HTML editor on Apex with the buttons for editing?

Hi,
I would like to have an online editor similar to the one I am using to post this thread with a bold, itallic and links button.
I see there are HTML editor items, however it doesn't have the bold, font buttons when I create the page?
Below are from the HELP section.
HTML Editor Standard - Provides more editing functionality, such as font, format and color, than HTML Editor Minimal.
Text Area with HTML Editor - Provides basic text formatting controls. Note that these controls may not work in all Web browsers.
Thanks.

How can I use javascript in a Text Area with HTML editor??

My question is... how can I use javascript in Text Area with HTML editor??
I can use javascript functions that change the content of Text Areas but i can´t if i try in text area with html editor....
I need to limit number of characters in a text area with html editor and i can´t.
could anybody help me please?

I have been experiencing similar problems with the HTML Editor and have managed to find an answer that should start to answer some of my questions. The Apex HTML Editor Standard is actually an HTML editor called FCKeditor. The FCKeditor has a Javascript API that can be found at http://docs.fckeditor.net/FCKeditor_2.x/Developers_Guide/JavaScript_API. Unfortuately this doesn't seem to give the whole answer and I found more at http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/thread.cfm/threadid:49607.
I needed to get the text entered within my html editor standard (e.g. P1_MYTEXT) and use it within my javascript function. I did this by using the following script
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function showtext(){
var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('P1_MYTEXT');
var editortext = escape(oEditor.GetXHTML(oEditor.FormatOutput));
alert(editortext);
</script>
Hope this helps.

HTML (Editor) region should scroll vertical only

Hi,
I have a HTML Editor . I want to restrict the width of it. I mean I want vertical scroll only, not horrizontal. For long sentences,it should go to next line after limit .
Thnx in adv.

Hello,
I think that it would be difficult to make because the size and font of text can be different. You have to write difficult javascript algorithm for determining row size, for pasting <br> tag at the end. Anyway you will have to change standard Apex HTML Editor component, that is not recommended. Don't waste your time for this and find another way for solving you problem.

HTML Editor (FCKEditor) broken in Safari (APEX 3.0)?

Hi folks,
When using Safari (3.1.1), FCKEditor does not load for me on page items of type HTML Editor). (It's fine using IE and FF). Safari reports:
Value undefined (result of expression func) is not object.
.../i/javascript/htmldb_html_elements.js (line 484)Searching the forum I found this reference:
AJAX result length > 32000
In his post there, Dan identifies what may be the problem:
"correct way to handle this is by using the FCKeditor_OnComplete function instead of an onload call. The function takes one parameter, the FCK Editor instance on the page, which in ApEx seems to have been made 'oFCKeditor';"
... but I'm still short of a fix.
Since FCKEditor is now bundled into APEX, I'd hope that APEX would successfully invoke it on all major browsers.
Does anybody (Apex team?) know a fix?
Has this been fixed at 3.1?
Thanks
john

Hello,
Has this been fixed at 3.1?Yes

Printing the data in "Textarea with HTML editor" item in APEX as pdf

Hello,
I have a requirement which goes like this.
The user enters data in the HTML editor in APEX. All the tools available in the HTML toolbar will be used (eg. bulleted points, tables etc.). This data is stored in a single cell in the database. This data needs to be generated as a pdf for printing. We have Apache FOP installed as well.
When I try to create a report region with this data and export it as pdf, the html tags are not considered. For eg. the table in the HTML editor doesn't appear as a table in the pdf, only the text appears.
Let me know if such a transformation is possible. Also, can any other tool perform this??
Note: The data in the HTML editor may not be in a fixed template. Whatever is entered there has to be converted.
Thanks in advance !!

The strip HTML attribute is set to "No" already. If you understood clearly, I need to convert the entire data in a HTML editor item to pdf. The data is stored in a single cell as HTML tags in the database. The data may inturn contain HTML tables as well. These HTML tables are not captured in the pdf, only the text within the tables are displayed.

APEX - Textarea with HTML Editor.

All,
I am working with Application Express Version 2.2.1.00.04
I have the following problem:
I have an item "Textarea with HTML Editor" which I am inserting
information CLOB in a table.
This data is consulted by a Region Report of APEX which has a Link that
will be a popup. Inside the report, I use wwv_flow_utilities.URLENCODE
(here the column is a CLOB) where it gives me the error "ORA-06502:
PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small".
I started to investigate which might be the problem and saw that the
item "Textarea with HTML Editor" usually inserts special characters.
I show an example of the special character that inserts and which is the
error.
SELECT wwv_flow_utilities.URLENCODE(' ')
FROM dual;
This character, which is like a space in target, is bringing problems to
be able to execute the report.
A provisional solution to solve this problem is to put a REPLACE into
the Query.
Has anyone this problem.???? Do you know why this character can be
inserted??????
Thx..

Thanks Dimitri!
I'm trying to find this place in the application but I don't have enough privileges. Here, we are working with Application Express 2.2.1 and we have to upgrade to 3.1.1.
In order to improve the behaviour of HTML Editor Standard, I think we should integrate FCK to our application, do you know about any step by step explanation to achieve this? Because I was searching this information in the forums, but I can't find anything. Please, any information you can share with me will be very helpful
Thanks again!

I'm using the HTML editor standard item from Apex3.2.
I want the possibility to add an image/object in the editor, but I don't see that option on the HTML editor standard item.
How do I activate this option? Can someone help me out please?
I've found something on:

Is this the only & easiest solution?
Thanks,

Sunenny,
Yes, it would take something like that. Another option, although not any easier really, it to use the latest CKEditor.

APEX Supplied HTML Editor (fckeditor) - Limit number of characters

Hi
Has anyone found a way of limiting the number of characters allowed in the HTML Editor that is supplied with APEX (3.1/fckeditor)
I have had a look at the fckeditor web page and found a couple of plugins but I fear that this approach will require me to manually implement fckeditor, and not use the inbuilt one.
I would also prefer to not do this with an application process as the user can overflow the editor and get the HTTP-400 Value param too long error.
Regards
Matt

APEX - Spelling check and textarea with html editor

I have an item on the form defines as textarea with html editor. I also need to be able to do spelling check, but the "textarea html editor" only has font features and no spelling check. Is there away to define an item to have both spelling check and font features in APEX? Any response is greately appreciated.
Thank you,
MT

MT,
No, this is not a supported region type in APEX 3.2.
You can take a look at jQuery and the number of rich text editors available for it: http://www.queness.com/post/212/10-jquery-and-non-jquery-javascript-rich-text-editors
Hope this helps.

Apex 3.0 Html Editor Standard item - Add feature.

Hi,
Can I customize your new Html Editor Standard field? I would like to add some buttons that will pop-up window.
In futur, do you know if you will have package or something to customize the item ?
Thanks

This cannot be customized. In a future release we might (might) have an editor that you can customize but we do not have that now. The very last icon you see in the Standard HTML Editor is 'Maximize the editor size' (looks like a window) and it will expand the textarea to fill your screen.

Textarea with HTML editor is not working

Hi all,
This is producing me a real headache.
I created the simplest application in the world with one Textarea with HTML editor, and the editor control does not show the usual tool bar for fonts, color, alignment, etc. Just a ordinary textarea.
Moreover, this was working before... I moved to another location in my work (me, not the server). Yes, I thought about the Internet Explorer, but Firefox has the same issue.
So any idea I can try to make this work?
I have another applications already in production with the same issue.
Need help!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance.

Lukas,
I would go and integrate FCKEDITOR (http://www.fckeditor.net/ ) into your application.
Here are instructions on how to achieve this (sorry but only in German):
http://www.oracle.com/global/de/community/tipps/einbinden_fckeditor/index.html
It basically means:
1) copying the files from fckeditor under the /images directory
(you can use the instructions here: http://daust.blogspot.com/2006/03/where-are-images-of-application.html)
2) creating two shortcuts INCLUDE_EDITOR_SCRIPTS and EDITOR
3) placing the shortcut INCLUDE_EDITOR_SCRIPTS into the page html header and
4) placing the shortcut EDITOR into the post element text of your plain textarea element
That's it.
BTW, FCKEDITOR has been included in Apex 3.0 as a standard item type.

~Dietmar.
