RTE Rich Text Editor

Hi Guys,
Anyone aware of a stable RTE Rich Text Editor code that can
be included in a record update page?
I need to have a RTE that allows for multiple fields. Most
only seem to allow for one field and do not work well with ASP code
and their Javascript.
Any suggestions welcomed please.
Thanks Jules

The TinyMCE "fine print" says it requires additional
extensions when using
FireFox for "some functions"

Using rich text editor (RTE) for custom applications

Our users enter texts on two places:
1) In Oracle Portal in text-items using the Rich Text Editor.
2) In text-fields in a custom application using html-tags <textarea>blabla</textarea>. For formatting the users currently have to type in html-tags themselves. Now we want to provide them an html-editor.
We would prefer to use the Rich Text Editor also for the custom application. However, that is integrated in Portal and the java-scripts are not easy to follow.
Have you tried something similar? So, did you use the Rich Text Editor for your own application? If yes, how?
If not, a very good alternative would be the qwebeditor (see http://www.qwebeditor.com). Did anybody replace the standard Portal rich text editor with the qwebeditor? In the Portal guides there are instructions about replacing the Portal rich text editor by another editor, but it is not clear if this will also work with the qwebeditor.
Thanks for your respons !
Best regards, Jan Willem Vermeer

Hi Jan,
I have configured FCKeditor in a few clients, and the process it's pretty straight forward, you can use the steps in the document (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/pdf/cm_rte_1014_features.pdf) .
Basically you download FCKeditor and put it in your apache server (you can put it unde rthe htdocs folder) after that, all you need to do is modify $ORACLE_HOME/portal/images/webword/buildUIHTML.html to reference the FCKeditor JS and CSS, and you can do the same type of reference for your custom apps.
Regards,
Juan

Portal Rich Text Editor in Firefox 3.5 Not Working

I'm using Oracle Portal Version: 10.1.4.0.0 (Build: 594)
The text item Rich Text editor works fine in IE 6 and has reduced functionality in Firefox 3.0 (scroll doesn't work). I've just updated to Firefox 3.5 and the text editor doesn't work at all now.
The user is presented with a grey box where all the text controls are squashed into the top left hand corner.
The following errors appear in the Error Console :
Error: element.children.tags is not a function
Source File: http://xyz.example.net:7778/images/webword/WebWordMenuToolbar.js
Line: 1
Error: attachEvt is not defined
Source File: http://xyz.example.net:7778/images/webword/buildUI1.js
Line: 76
(I've replaced our server url with http://xyz.example.net)
Has anyone else noticed this? Has anyone got any suggestions on what I can do to investigate/fix it?
Thanks,
Matt
Update :
There is a patch available to potentially fix the Rich Text Editor issues in Firefox
"The Rich Text Editor Does Not Work Correctly In FireFox" - Metalink Doc ID: 456512.1
or you can replace the RTE completely with a 3rd party editor :
"How to integrate third party RTE (FCKeditor) with Oracle Portal" - Metalink Doc ID: 352796.1
Using FCKEditor may well solve the issues but I only use Firefox for development. Our users use IE6 so I don't want to replace the interface unless I have to.

Rich Text Editor with Custom Text Attribute

Hello All,
We are using the latest version of Oracle Portal 10G. I have a need to create custom Attributes of the type text to let people enter a lot of text. But when User are in edit mode of an item where this custom attribute is used, the Rich Text Editor is not shown for entering the Text for the Custom Text Attribute. It shows a normal html text area. Has anyone ever used RTE with Custom Attribute?
I request you guys for help.
Thanks.

The Problem with the Custom Attribute is not solved, but I have now compromised with the Situation and now I am not using a Custom attribute.
Rather, Now I am creating a Custom Item Type using Base Text Type (earlier i wanted to create custom item type at my own without any base item type). In this case now I will not be able to change the Lable of the RTE (that is "Text", when the Custom Item is in Edit Mode), but I hope that my users can understand that much.
I have created a template for portal pages. In the Template I can edit the Region Properties. When I edit the Region property of the region where I want to display my Custom Items. I get two Tabs on the top, Main and Attributes/Style. ON the main tab I can tell what type of region it should be, width etc, in my case it is item type region. And on the Attributes/Style tab, I can select from the availabe Attributes as which all Attributes I want to display. Here if i select only "Associated Functions" Attribute then normally portal should not render anything by default on the Page. It should rather make a call to the procedure which is associated with the Custom Item and as when I was creating the custom item type, I had clicked on "Display Procedure Results With Item", so portal should now display the result of my Procedure. So far it works without problem.
But the problem is that the Portal displays the text at its own also. As i have written that Portal should not display anything at its own, this doesn't work in this version of Portal for a Custom Item Type that is made using Base Text Item Type. For all others it has worked till now (I have create 50s of Custom item types).
You can better understand by going to the following URL. Just have a look between the two dotted lines (Dotted line is also a seperate Custom Item Type). Between the two Dotted Lines is a custom item, in general it would be a Custom News Item having title, image and so on.
http://sunnode1.edvz.sbg.ac.at:7778/portal/page?_pageid=79,56047&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL
I have really programmed a lot with portal but now at this stage where I am near to end, I am getting problems which are coming from Product. I request you for help.

Rich Text Editor functionality for a DIV tag in a publishing page in SharePoint online

Hi,
We are having a requirement where we need RTE behavior of SharePoint 2013 Rich Html Field for a custom DIV. The scenario goes like this:
1. I have a publishing page
2. I dropped the content editor web part and to that content editor web part I will point to an HTML file that needs to be rendered in that content editor web part
3. I have one DIV in the above mentioned HTML files and I want that div to be editable and I need to RTE options for that DIV.
How to accomplish the above behavior?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create html rich text editor for a DIV tag in a publishing page in SharePoint online.
You can create your own Rich Text Editor.
Here are some great blogs for your reference:

Flex 3.5 Rich Text Editor Bold Button is Selected by default?

Hi and thanks in advance,
I'm creating dynamic forms via action script in flex builder with SDK 3.5.
One part of this form is a rich text editor, it creates and works just fine, but I have one little annoying issue the bold button is defaulted to on (selected)
The funny think is, if I lose focus on the text area of the RTE and de-select the bold button, as soon as I set focus to the text area again the bold button is toggled back on. This leads me to think that the text area which is empty is some how bold.
if I show an alert Alert.show( String( _rte.boldButton.selected ) ) after the RTE as been added to the form is shows false.
Even if I set _rte.boldButton.selected = false just to be sure it still displays the bold button as selected.
Its a basic RTE the only thing I'm doing is adding a validator if its required and removing the link bar
_rte.toolbar.removeChild(_rte.linkTextInput);
Any ideas are very much appreciated

Div ids are not persisting in rich text editor of CQ5.6

Hi,
     I created a rich text widget and I added plugins. I activated "misctools" plugin also. I clicked on "sourceedit" and paste the code which contains ids for divs like -
<div id="onboarding" class="row onboarding-content scroller">
</div>
After that I clicked ok and again I opened the dialog. But I'm unable to see id. It shows only -
<div class="row onboarding-content scroller">
</div>
I also created "htmlRules/serializer/config" nodes of type nt:unstructured under the richtext editor widget. It worked in 5.5 but not in 5.6.
Whats the problem behind this? Please suggest me the solution for this. Let me know if there is any other way to persist div ids in richtext editor of cq5.6
Regards,
Arya.

Hi,
     Try this to persist div ids in rich text editor in cq5.6
     Create a folder structure similar to "/libs/cq/ui/rte/core/HtmlSerializer.js" in apps as "/apps/cq/ui/rte/core/HtmlSerializer.js". Make sure that the folder structure and node types are as same as in libs. Then set "idAttribMode" to "keep" in "_init" function of HtmlSerializer.js. It will work

Adding custom buttons to the Rich Text Editor in CQ

Hi,
I have added custom buttons to the rich text editor in order to allow our editors to add specific content, such as popovers, custom videos and other data necessary data.
I have successfully modifed the Rich Text editor so, that it includes the custom buttons in the actions panel.
I have also managed to make the buttons work and include the data where necessary, when user highlights the text and clicks on a certain button.
The last bit I am struggling with, is the visual feedback we give to the users when this text has associated action with it.
E.g. when we select this text and make it bold when we click on the word B the button B becomes highlighted in the actions panel, later when we continue typing our text and click again on "bold" the letter B becomes highlighted again.
Is there any button related callback/method I could overwrite to add this functionality and make my button highlighted ?
Thanks,
Puzanovs

After lot's of thinking found a solution....
Essentially the first step is to extend the CQ.form.rte.plugins.Plugin in your custom button.
Then during the UI initialisation we create our "custom"
var pressButton = new ui.TbElement("press-button", this, true,this.getTooltip("press-button")); // Essential extend of the button
setInterval(function() {
                 if(window.jQuery) {
                     window.jQuery(document).ready(function () {
                         window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").css({width:45,"background-image":"none"}); // Ignore the background
                         window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").text("Press Button"); // Set the name
                        $(document).on({
                            mouseenter: function(){
                              window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").html("<b>Press Button</b>"); // Set the name bold
                            mouseleave: function(){
                           window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").html("Press Button"); // Set the name normal
                         }}, '.press-button');
             }, 100);
tbGenerator.addElement("press-button", plg.Plugin.SORT_LISTS, pressButton, 10); // element is inserted
Every time the element is inserted I add the following html
<span class="press-button">Test peter</span>
Now, every time in the editor, the content editor mouse overs the custom button it is higlighted in the RTE))

Using third party Rich Text Editors with Portal Release 2 (9.0.2)

Hi Everyone,
We would like to use some third party Rich Text editor with portal as the Oracle Rich Text editor is fairly basic and it does not fulfill our business requirements.
Some of the things we are hoping to accomplish by through this text editor (after customizing) are:
Ability to select any page within the portal to add as link in the Text Editor.
Ability to select images from the portal repository.
Create HTML Tables.
Support of copy/paste from Microsoft Word.
I am looking for any suggestions or experiences on how this can be done.
Thanks in advance..

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.

Rich text Editor and XSS

We have started to use rich text editors within our application and there is a nice little feature that will escape script tags on insert into the database:
i.e the code:
<script>alert(1);</script>is stored in the database escaped.
This is great as it guards against Cross Site Scripting as the value is treated as text and not evaluated as script when rendered out of the database.
If however you edit your escaped text in source mode within the editor and replace this with the original un-escaped text, the DML procedure to get the values into the database do not escape the values. I was wondering if there is a reason why text is escaped of script tags in a rich text editor but not when the RTE is switched to Source Mode.
If this is a bug, I can raise an SR.

Duncs

How to upgrade PORTAL 9.0.4.1 â ENHANCED rich text editor

Hi, we are currently in Oracle 9ias rel 2 environment. The RTE for adding the item is not supporting relative path. PORTAL 9.0.4.1 patch comes with ENHANCED rich text editor which supports the relative path. However, you have to be on 10g to apply this patch. We just want to upgrade this RTE to the enhance version. Does any one know whether there is a patch for this or any ides to resolve this problem. This is a workaround for this by simply disabling the RTE but it is not convinent for our business users.
Thanks in advance
Frank

hi frank,
the new version of the RTE is only available from 9.0.4.1 onwards. it is not available in 9.0.2.x.
we have a white paper on OTN:

How to Change Width of Rich Text Editor

We are attempting to use a rich text editor. By default, the span for the RTE gets a width of 760px. This is much wider than we'd like.
The id attribute of the span control gets set to cke_<PAGE_ITEM_NAME_HERE>, so this jQeury selector should obtain a reference to the control and allow us to change or remove the width attibute
span#cke_P3_DESCRIPTION_2However, what we've notice is that the control does not exist until after the page has been loaded. In other words, if we do this in the "Execute when Page Loads" section, nothing happens
$('span#cke_P3_DESCRIPTION_2').css('width','');We can confirm this by popping up an alert. In the page load section, this yields "0" but, in a button on the page, that gets clicked after the page is open, it yields "1"
alert($('span#cke_P3_DESCRIPTION_2').length);So, since the control isn't actually there at load time, what's the best way to do this?
-Joe

Thanks for this tip, VC! Worked like a charm.
I was having a problem with a rich text field in a modal region in one of the new responsive themes (theme 25). The page dutifully alters the spacing and layout of the page regions as the browser window is made wider or narrower, and the modal region also resizes appropriately. But the CKEditor window within the modal region stubbornly stayed at whatever value it defaults to (30 characters, which I guess translates to the number of pixels mentioned by the OP).
I slightly modified your code below to set the width property to 100% instead of a fixed value and now the editor window expands to fill the available modal region width. Perfect!

How to extend Rich Text Editor in Portal 10.1.4

Is there a note that explains how to extend the InsertImage feature of the rich text editor in portal 10.1.4.
It was very straightforward in 10.1.2, but the RTE has changed with 10.1.4 and I didn't find an updated version of the following technical note: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/pdf/cm_rte_10gr2_features.pdf
Than'ks

Hi Raphael,
In fact my goal is to extend WebWord Editor and not replacing it. For example I want to add a new Image Picker in WebWord, what I had done in 10.1.2, allowing a user to select an image file from a Portal Page. It was as simple as replacing an url reference in BuildUIEmbed.html (by default pointing to a static image picker page).
It seems not so simple in WebWord, as the URL of the image picker in BuildUIEmbed.html is replaced by a "RAW HTML static source" in the javascript "popup.js" (see InsertImage() function)
I'd like to replace this raw HTML by an url pointing to a dynamic page browsing my images. I allready have done this dynamic page but I'm not a javascript expert. If you have any ideas ...
Than'ks anyway.

Editing the properties of the Rich text editor in WebCenter Portal

This is a known issue in both Portal 10.1.4.x and Portal 11.x :
