Rich Text Component

Hi,
Are there any plans of adding a Rich Text component in the list of JSF components.
Or is there such a component available elsewhere?
In a lot of cases, rich text input and output is required in web applications, and it would be of great value!
Regards
Haroon

Thanks for Suggestion.
We are aware of this issue.It has been entered as an RFE.This feature is being evaluated for inclusion in the future releases.
Thanks,
Runa.

Using a different Rich Text Editor ?

Hi,
I'd like to know if you're using a different Rich Text Editor other than the one provided by Oracle ?
Are you satisfied with it ? Especially in the management of images ?
Thanks
Max.

there is a textflow component
http://blog.flexexamples.com/2009/07/25/exporting-a-textflow-object-in-flex-4/
still exports to font tags unfortunately, but its closer than the richtexteditor. Its basically at the point where you could even write your own small parser and adapt the output to the format you desire.

How to Output Rich Text Format.

Hi everyone, i use a rich text editor called tiny mce in my web application. After i click the submit button the value inside the text area would be saved in my database including the HTML tags e.g. <i>Sample Report edited via Tiny MCE Rich Text Editor<i>. I need to output the text in a webuijsf static text component but the moment i see the output the tags are still there and the text is not in italics format. Does anyone know how to output it in static text with the design in it?

It is not updated for more than 1 years and it is dropped by Sun and users were recommended to migrate to ICEfaces.
[http://woodstock.dev.java.net]
The Woodstock release 4.2 is the last official version of Woodstock that Sun will release. Sun will continue to support its customers that have built on top of Woodstock 4.2. The Project Woodstock code is still available, and community members can still create new features or enhancements. For future development or migration of existing Woodstock projects, Sun is officially endorsing ICEfaces as the replacement technology for Woodstock. Also see [http://www.nabble.com/Woodstock-Migration-Path-to-ICEfaces-td21057513.html], although I would recommend RichFaces above that. It is only that it doesn't have a drag'n'drop palette for Netbeans, so it is not reachable for blind visual developers.

Rich Text editor in Webdynpro

Hi,
With the new FormattedTextView in 2004s one will be able to render xhtml compliant rich test in Webdynpro.
This however only covers the rednering of rich text.
There still does not seem to be a rich text editor control available for webdynpro applications, which I think might be a common requirement for document centric applications.
I was wondering :
1 - will there be a richt text editor control available for WDP in the forseeable future ?
2 - if not, are there any workardounds available to allow for the generation of rich text ?

Hi Valery,
Well, I already thought of that kind of solution, but I do not consider it a very clean solution. I know WDP supports portal eventing. On the other side of such a scenario you could even do without a 3rd party wysiwyg editor, cause SAP does offer an html editor control in its set of HTMLB controls.
We intend to use WDP as a UI layer on top of SAPs KM. Our scenario involves template based publishing of structured documents (we first looked at xml forms, but they showed too many limitations). The idea is to model the document structure and content at runtime as WDP context structures (based on xml schemas) and then to serialize WDP context into XML content and metadata, with KM acting as business and persistence layer. Markup and insertion of images into the different text parts of the document however has become an additional requirement, which is why we are looking for a ways to fit that in our current design.
You could indeed think of some kind of data exchange between a regular portal component and the wdp application, but I am not too confident whether that is going to be a reliable solution.
PS : for the serialization of WDP context, your post in a different thread on this forum helped me a lot in my first attempts to create KM documents from data wdp runtime data (context). The link provided to the online book and your little example was very welcome. Thanks for that !

Using rich text editor in new asset type input form

Hey everyone,
I'm currently trying to create assets based on a newly created asset type (which I of course, created). However, the STORAGE property I declared in the asset definition file is to support formatted text, which would normally be pasted from word documents. Note that I'm using the Basic Asset Model.
Thus, I need a rich-text editor to be used in the content input form. So, after looking at the tags reference in the developer's documentation, I thought that I could use EWEBEDITPRO to achieve my goal but there's always an error mentionning that the component can't be launched. I supposedly have to configure two parameters, one of them being the path for ewebeditpro.js. I looked for that but haven't found it. On the other hand, I looked at the Oracle WebCenter Sites Property File document and that one stated that EWEBEDITPRO is deprecated and not supported (?!?!).
So in short, what can I use, as a rich-text/html editor?? Thanks in advance for any reply!
Edited by: DigitalSelf on May 24, 2012 2:26 PM

Thanks. From what I've read in the developer's guide, CKEditor was available with assets built from the Flex model. However, I'm currently having a hard time trying to display the content of an attribute with content input through the CKEditor, because it's stored in a blob. Although I've found several examples showing how to read the content of a blob, none of them worked for me...

Rich text editor in OOTB taskflow not getting rendered in iPad

Hi,
We have a Webcenter Portal(11.1.1.6) Framework application. One of the pages, we have used a Blogs OOTB taskflow.
When we try to access the application from an iPad, the area where i can key in data is missing and it gives a pop up saying "The page could not be loaded".
On analysis of the taskflow, we could see that it was the <rte:editor> component that was missing from the page.
We could understand from certain forums that there is an incompatibility between rich text editor components and Safari browser.
Do we have any alternate way to solve this issue.
Any help is appreciated.

ADF and such WebCenter is not supported on Safari iOS 6 until 11.1.1.7
You probably have to use a different rich text editor however those can interfere with the ADF JS framework.

Script tags in text component

Is there a way to for script tags to be allowed when pasting html code in the text component using the source edit view. When I paste script tags, they are removed when I click OK.

I don't believe there is a reliable way to use the source edit to paste in javascript.
Generally if I have this kind of requirement where author's need the ability paste in raw code (javascript, CSS, or markup) I will create a custom component for this that uses a text area widget rather than a rich text editor. If all I want to allow for is savascript I will have component's JSP print out the wrapping script tags, therefore preventing an author from using the component to print out unauthorized markup/styling.
Obviously there is a risk to giving author's this level of control - you give them the ability violate brand and style standards and the ability to break a page (with either bad markup/styling or javascript errors).

How to customize the Rich Text Editor task flow in the doc lib?

Dear Experts in WCP forum,
You know that webcenter portal has a feature is called customizing task flow.. so we have client request to customize the Rich Text Editor task flow of the Document library. Such as disable the Format, Font, Size drop down menu of the richtext editor UI.   But after I open the editHTML.jsff of the oracle.webcenter.doclib. the code is like this:
                    <f:facet name="richtext">
                           <af:panelGroupLayout layout="scroll" id="rtepng2">
                              <rte:editor id="rte" value="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLTextArea}" converter="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLConverter}"/>
                              
                              <af:region value="#{bindings.linksResourcePicker.regionModel}" id="lpr"/>
                           </af:panelGroupLayout>
                        </f:facet>
So likes that editor in fact is from <rte:editor tag.. my question is how to dig into this <rte:editor to find its jsff code? And change the menu inside to do the cusomization for them?
Is that possible?
A million thanks here in advance!

</tag>
Which means that if you want to change the toolbar you have to check what is the type of toolbars the CKEditor uses, I can tell you that there are two defaults: Basic and Full and I believe the tag uses a custom toolbar called WC by default.
So if you want to change the toolbar to only show basic, change the toolbarSet property to Basic to make the final result looks like <rte:editor id="rte" value="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLTextArea}" converter="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLConverter}" toolbarSet="Basic" />
This is not tested, this is only a few insights I got reading about CKEditor

Rich text editor (apex 4.0)

using blue gray theme and a page with a rich text editor. Expanding the rich text options displays the text body p below the text area that persists even if you close the rich text options. Anybody know how to get rid of that behavior?

I think your mixing 2 technologies.
At 1 side you have xml in combination with xsl (style sheets used in BI Publisher and FOP) to generate your pdf. And at the other side you have HTML...
XML and HTML are 2 entirely different technologies which you can not mix this simple. I investigated the same problem as you had, and in the end I ended up using jasperreports instead of FOP.
Maybe BI Publisher has some html regions which you could insert into your word document but I doubt it cause more people have asked the same question on this board...
So my advice: use jasperreports (also it is free for commercial usage)
Success

Converted single line text to multiple and want to have rich text editing in layout

We had a text field in a site that was initially set as single line of text. We needed it to be bigger and also allow formatting. So I added the field into the page layout.
Changing
<SharePointWebControls:TextField id="habitat" FieldName="Habitat" runat="server"/>
to
<SharePointWebControls:NoteField id="habitat" FieldName="Habitat" runat="server"/>
But it doesn't show any rich text editing options and displays the full html tags in the field.
If I open the page in the edit properties screen instead, then the field displays as I want it with the rich text editing options available in the ribbon, and text showing as bolded instead of like this:
<div>This is <strong>the </strong>habitat field.</div>
This is a site using the 2010 Publishing template running in compatibility mode on a 2013 server.
How can I get my page layout to behave the same way as the edit properties screen does?

Hi,
Here are two solutions for your reference:
1. We can use the InputFormTextBox control to achieve it.
<SharePoint:InputFormTextBox ID="habitat" RichText="true" RichTextMode="FullHtml" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="20"></SharePoint:InputFormTextBox>

http://blog.mastykarz.nl/rich-text-editor-control-sharepoint-2010/
2. We can use the RichHtmlField control to achieve it.
<PublishingWebControls:RichHtmlField id="habitat" FieldName="Habitat" runat="server"/>

Rich text box used in Infopath Form not displaying option to get images from Computer

Hello,
We have used "Rich text box" in Infopath Form which is not displaying option to get images from Computer.
Options available are : From Address, From SharePoint
But if we Rich text box in list, then it works fine with "From Computer" option.
can you please help me out to get this option.
Thanks in advance.
REgards,
Jayashri

Hi,
From your description, there is no “From Computer” option to get images with rich text box in InfoPath form.
Per my knowledge, by design there are “From Address” and “From SharePoint” options without “From Computer” option in rich text box in InfoPath form. As a workaround, you can develop a custom InfoPath Rich Text box to do it.
About developing a custom InfoPath control, I suggest you create a new thread on the forum “Visual Studio Tools for Office”, more experts will assist you with InfoPath development.

Rich Text Box Issue - Expand to show all Text

Hi everyone
I'm having a pretty frustrating issue with the rich text box when viewing a line item (not when editing the item, but viewing the item)
I want my rich text box to expand with the text, which I have changed in the options on InfoPath with the "Expand to show all text" scrolling option. However, in IE, the table row will expand, but the actual rich text box will not and I'll have
a scroll bar there and you cant see all of the text at one time. If I look in Chrome, then it works the way I want and I can see all of the lines of text that were entered into the rich text box.
The only solution for IE to work correctly is to change the Display settings to "Enable enhanced rich text content...". But the big issue with that is now you can no longer highlight the text (the highlight disappears right after highlighting it),
and the users will need to copy text from the text box, so it renders the "enhanced" rich text box useless for us
It's kind of a lose-lose situation that I'd love to find the solution for

I guess a better solution would be how can you highlight text from an enhanced rich text box, because changing these to "rich text box" gets rid of font colors in the pre-existing data.
The original problem was that they couldn't highlight text unless they went into edit mode
