WebEnterprise - HTML Editors and Java

I'd like to know any opinions on HTML editors and their use with
WebEnterprise. Have any of you done
evaluations to determine the best editor to use with the Forte product? Also,
do you have experience using
a Java applet as the front-end to a Forte service object? In this instance,
are you able to do so with Forte 30f2 and
WebSDK?
Thanks,

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.

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

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.

Is it possible to write an HTML editor using Java?

I have this final year project (for my degree), where I need to use Java to write an HTML editor.
It doesn't have to be fancy or anything, just need to be able to generate HTML files from the GUI frontend where text, images and tables will be created.
I'm new to Java, and I'm having problem with it.
Please help, I only need to know whether it's possible, and possible a little guideline on how to go about it, please?

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.

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.

HTML form and java

Hi,
I have been pulling my hair out for the past week on this with no suces EVEN after forum searching, googling ..........
Here is the problem:
I have an HTML form of the following type and need to pass in a Javascript variable to the servlet called on hitting the submit button.
<script>document.write('<form name="Test" method="get" onSubmit="return chkfields(this)" action="/servlet/NewServlet?ABC='+unescape(params["ABC"])+'">')</script>For debugging purposes, I have a document.write statement and I see it on the page right above that line and it does display it on the field. However this thing does not pass the varible to the servlet. I even tried replacing the unescape(params["ABC"]) with just the variable name used in the form as ABC and that did nto work either. Please suggest any other suggestions.

test.html:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
function setHidden() {
document.testForm.testInput.value = "test";
return true;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" name="testForm" action="test2.jsp" onSubmit="return setHidden()">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="testInput">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>test2.jsp:
<html>
</head>
<body>
<%
out.println(request.getParameter("testInput"));
%>
</body>
</html>

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!

How to render HTML files in Java?

I've read a bit about rendering HTML files using JEditorPane, but been told it's quite limited, and doesn't handle many events other than Hyperlinks stuff...
I heard that Java bean has a slight more advanced HTML renderer, is that right?
The thing is that I'm hoping to create a simple (static) HTML editor using Java, but need something to render the HTML file...and I need more event handleling, e.g. mouse click on what element (text, image or table) of the rendered HTML file.
Can someone please give me some ideas?

If you just need to display the HTML page with link support, you can use the JEditorPane with the content type as text/html. Look up the Java Tutorial on this site (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/text.html) and the API docs for details on how to use it.

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.

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.
