HTML Editor and reply to discussion post

Hello,
I am using Discussion Group provided by KM. In a discussion, when I reply to a post, the HTML Editor is opened. In the HTML Editor, not all the functions are available. The Editing functions (display, cut, copy, paste) and some of the Formatting functions are displayed. Other functions such as Inserting Objects (Insert image from KM, Insert link from KM, ...) are NOT available.
Is it possible to make these "missing" functions available ?
Thank you.

Hello Amit,
Thank you for your reply.
The HTML Editor is set correctly. I checked with the KM explorer. When I used the menu New - HTML File..., the HTML Editor is opened with all the functions (including the Inserting Objects and Tables functions) .
Is there any other configuration that I need to check?
Regards.

Highlighted info in html editor and sending it in an email

Is there a way to take everything that is highlighted in the html editor and send in an email?
Either in the body of the default email client or as attachment in apex.mail or email client?
Thanks.

Hello,
Maybe this link can help you: http://javascript.internet.com/page-details/highlighted-text.html
I've been looking at the FCK Editor (which is what APEX is using) Javascript API's but didn't find a solution that quick, but my guess it's somewhere in there too.
Nevertheless the above link provides you with something that works as well.
Hope you like it.

HTML Editors and Greek Language

Hi all,
When using the HTML Editor the value that is stored in the database
is
&Delta &epsilon &nu &upsilon &pi ά&rho &chi &epsilon &iota&alpha &pi ό&theta &epsilon &mu &alpha (Deleted ; in the end of each character so that I can show you what I mean).
instead of Δεν υπάρχει απόθεμα
This doesn't happen when I use text item or text area.
Can I do something about it?
APEX version 3.1.0.00.32
Thanks in advance

Peggy,
FrontPage 97 / 98 have both worked really well for us, however we
discovered a slight hitch with 98 where the Editor would gobble up
<?FORTE ..> tags inside the SELECT OPTION tag, but you can work around
that one, apart from this FP98 is a great HTML editor. I also thought
HotMetal was a good fit.These observations come out of evaluating about
5-6 leading HTML editors.
Some recommended steps in the process:
1) Create a prototype by laying out all the HTML using an Editor. Figure
out all the navigation within your web. More recent features seen in
HTML editors such as JavaScript generation and DHTML / CSS support are
really difficult to work out on your own, let the advanced Editors do as
much dirty work for you as poss.
2) Once the prototype is finalized, for all the pages requiring any
dynamic content generation, figure out all the Tag Handlers you will
need. Change the HTML Content by inserting the FORTE tags as required,
code the corresponding Handlers.
3) Figure out the relation between page requests and the security
requirements for your pages, design the Session properties and data
tracing across requests using the Session object.
4) Do refer to all the Tech Notes on the Forte web site for known
issues.
As for the Java applets frontend, we have used Java - IIOP - Forte since
early beta through every Forte release (3.0.X) and it works fine with
WebEnterprise and release 30f2.

I'd like to know any opinions on HTML editors and their use with

HTML Editor and getting HTML Tags

Hi
i am using JTextPane to create Text Editor.I have added button to add Bold,or Italic Text.Text is shown as bold in the editor. I want to get the text of this Text Pane with HTML Text i mean in the form of Tags <B> text</b> for example.
But on the view it should not display those tags in the editor
Can any one please tell me how can i do it
Regards

I want to get the text of this Text Pane with HTML Text i mean in the form of Tags <B> text</b> This must be basic JTextPane question ! The method getText() will do this work for you.It will return the content within <html></html> with all required formatting.
Again ,if you like to place the content in the JTextPane ,us setText(String content) and it will be reflected as you liked.
But,the thing is your JTextPane's content type should be "text/html"
PS. Please post the swing related issues in PROJECT SWING forum.
Regards.

Why does the BlackBoard HTML editor freeze and crash Firefox 3.6?

Black Board uses a HTML editor that seems to be based on JAVA. I teach by added posts to threads and can use the editor or disable the editor in either case after adding some text the window freezes and I cannot add text or delete text. If I enable the HTML editor the text is gone, but if I then disable it I can add a few letters, but if I try to delete, it will again freeze. Disabling and enabling the HTML editor works several times and the FireFox will crash. Actually I do not care about the HTML editor. My preference is just to disable the HTML editor and add my classroom comments.
Oddly the editor works on Safari, but its slow and clunky, so I disable the HTML editor and I can add my raw text with some selective HTML to get paragraphs and bold. I would rather go back to FireFox, but for now Safari works better.
This is the HTML Editor per the about window:
Objects Edit-on Pro 4.2.106.1, packaged with WebCT on Vista

Try using CCleaner: http://www.piriform.com/ (:
And good luck with that girlfriend vs. X thingey!

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.

Hello Sascha,
Thanks for your reply.
The initial requirement of client is to replace HTML editor with JCE editor.
Will you able to tell me about the development effort for such integration.
Secondly, am not sure this happens but just to be sure:
Ive heard that some client users have edited the file offline but the moment they upload the doc/file in Portal/KM, some of the tags miss out.
Including this, there are many other bugs in HTML editor and this is the reason why client wants to replace it.
Thirdly, I had also suggested to go with Web Page Composer but then again, its buggy.
We are on EP7 SP9
Any thoughts on this?

Replace standard HTML editor..Please guide

Hello All,
Is it possible to replace HTML editor with another editor like JCE editor?
If yes, please share your experience
If not with JCE, please let me know as to which other editors can the HTML editor be replaced with?
If the HTML editor cannot be replaced, is there a way to provide another option for KM users...something like the 'Open With...'option we have while working on windows.
Awaiting Reply.

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.

Problem with HTML Editor box in XML Form

Hi all,
I am using a HTML editor box in one of the XML form template. When I parse the data from HTML editor and apply my own style sheet and display in JSP page, it has no effect on it. Instead the style set by HTML editor box is being applied. Is there any way to override the style applied by HTML editor ?
For example,
Suppose user enters "Hello" in HTML Editor box and saves the xml form.
Then when I parse this data and apply my style sheet like
<style="font-family:arial; font-size:12"><%= datafromXMLform() %>
I should get "Hello" in arial font with size 12, instead I am getting size=1 because of style applied by html editor.
Is there anyway to remove/override this style?
Thanks in advance,
Sandesh
Edited by: sandesh kumbhar on Oct 27, 2008 4:12 PM

Got it !!!
In the property section of html editor in form builder , set the style as none/empty instead of standard.

Custom Popup - Passing values back to Textarea with HTML Editor

I have created a Custom Popup which is to populate a "Textarea with HTML Editor".
I have found that the Custom Popup works fine if the target item is defined as a "Textarea", or "Textarea (auto-height)", or "Textarea w/Character Counter" (although the counter is not automatically updated), or "Textarea w/Character Counter & Spellcheck", or "Textarea with Spell Checker".
However, if the target item is defined as "Textarea with HTML Editor" the Custom Popup does not populate the target item. No error message is produced. If the target item already had data, the data is unchanged.
Is this a known bug?

"Textarea with HTML Editor" is actually two objects on the screen with javascript keeping the data in the two objects in sync as you type in the editor.
You have to populate both objects as you try to syncronize the data from your popup.
I built a screen using dHTML that switches between the HTML Editor and the Text with Spell check and use Javascript to keep the two (actually three objects in sync)
My button that switches from one view to the other uses the following syntax:
javascript:setEqual('P9904_HTML_MESSAGE','P9904_MESSAGE','P9904_MESSAGEDiv');
'P9904_HTML_MESSAGE' is the HTML view of the data with spell check
'P9904_MESSAGE' is the html editor view of the data
'P9904_MESSAGEDiv' is the extra object that Oracle uses for the editor
This is the fuction that keeps the data in sync:
function setEqual(fromObjectID,toObjectID,htmlObjectID)
document.getElementById(toObjectID).value = document.getElementById(fromObjectID).value;
document.getElementById(htmlObjectID).innerHTML=document.getElementById(fromObjectID).value;
I hope this helps.

How to create a WYSIWIG HTML editor

I need to create a WYSIWIG HTML editor and I'm thinking of using Swing.
I realise many have done this before and that there are products already on the market ranging from Coffee Cup to Dreamweaver.
However, this will be for a specific application where my users will need to drop some composite objects on to the web page -- these objects will generate chunks of HTML containing some of my own attributes with a special syntax. These objects might be as simple as a textbox with a label, or something more complex.
So the idea is that the user selects the object they wish to create by clicking a particular icon in a palette. The cursor changes to a cross-hair as the mouse is moved across some sort of canvas pane. The user clicks where they want the top left-hand corner of the object to be (rubber banding not necessary). A dialogue pops up asking for some context-sensitive properties for the object. At this point, the system can work out the HTML object it needs to create, i.e. tags, attributes, etc.
So far the canvas pane has acted as a simple drawing surface, perhaps with a set of grid lines to aid the user in positioning. But at this point, know that we know the HTML object required, I want it to be rendered on the pane as HTML.
Is it possible for a pane to be both a canvas an an HTML renderer like this, so that I can achieve a true WYSIWYG effect ? Does anyone understand what I'm talking about ?! Are there any examples of how I would go about this ?
Thanks

Is it possible for a pane to be both a canvas an an HTML renderer like this, so that I can achieve a true WYSIWYG effect ? Does anyone understand what I'm Check out JEditorPane and JTextPane for HTML support. You have to do JEditorPane.setEditable(false) to make it render html. It also SUCKS as a web container - no support for style sheets, forms, javascript, etc.
It is definitely possible to add components into or over the JEditorPane to show lines and other things. I'm just not sure what the point of this is.
