WYSIWYG HTML editor extension or replacement

Hi everybody,
We have a client that needs additional functionality in the WYSIWYG HTML editor in Oracle9iAS Release 2. Specifically the client needs to add pictures to an article/text in a simple browse and insert kinda way. It would be desirable to be able to choose from the users harddrive and pictures in a repository.
Is there any way to extend or replace the build-in the WYSIWYG HTML editor ??
Any contributions are welcome ..
Best regards
Christian Ballisager, Denmark

Hi
We have developed a WYSIWYG HTML editor to extend the functionality of Oracle Portal 3.0.9. The editor has the functions you ask for but today it only works in IE browser.
Best regards

WYSIWYG HTML Editor code

I was reading a lot of old messages in this forum and there was some about people who had created a WYSIWYG HTML Editor. They were willing to share the code. I'm insteresting in how a good such editor are build... Is there anyone who wants to share such an editor to me?

Creating a WYSIWYG HTML editor

quick question:
I'm creating an HTML editor using JTextPane for my GUI and an HTMLEditorKit in the back. I'm just running a simple test with the following html file:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
 
 let's make a web page
 
 
 
 
 just to see if this works
 
</body>
</html>I'm calling
HTMLEditorKit editorKit = new HTMLEditorKit();
HTMLDocument doc = (HTMLDocument) editorKit.createDefaultDocument();
editorKit.read(m_reader, this.getDoc(), 0);where m_reader is a FileReader linked to the above file.
Then I'm using that as the content for my JTextPane by saying
textPane = new JTextPane(doc);Then when I do a System.out.print(textPane.getText()), I get:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
 
 
</body>
</html>any ideas?

I'd create my own Draw2D figure to render text boxes and other html
elements. SWT widgets can't (as far as I know) be embedded in the GEF
GrapicalViewer's main (SWT) control. You're building blocks are Draw2D
figures. A nice emulated lightweight solution (c.f swing).
The other great advantage, is that a figure based TextField gives you the
the ability to style the appearance of the textbox, ie border, colour, etc.
You could create a base figure styling interface.
The TextField or TextBox, could be based on a draw2d.text FlowFigure.
You're also going to need to have some form of FlowLayout for the page,
to emulate how elements flow on a HTML page in a browser.
I guess the Logic Diagram labels are a good place to start looking.

WYSIWYG HTML editor developed in Java

I need a HTML editor developed in Java and of open source so that I could inhibit some actions. This editor needs to be graphic introducing the result of HTML, as it does FrontPage, so that any user can modify his content.
It will be that someone can help ?

Have a look at [Metaphase Editor|http://www.metaphaseeditor.com] . It's a WYSWIWYG HTML Editor component for Java and is licensed under LGPL.
The binaries and source code is available at [Project Kenai|http://kenai.com/projects/metaphaseeditor] .

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.
Regards,
Ritu

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?
Awaiting Reply.

Ritu

Licensing and HTML Editor for Large No of Content Providers

Hi All
Currently evaluating RH (paln to use XHTML editor for source and targets will be WebHelp, hopefully with RH Server and export to Word for manual). We have a suite of 17 apps and will use a master project and child projects for each app. Got that all setup and my master pages, etc. Export to word looks pretty good.
I have about 20 content providers (no dedicated documentation resources), so I need a way for them to contribute styled content. I really don't want them using Word as it's too easy for them to stray from the supplied styles (we have that problem now for our Word docs). I'm keeping the style pretty simple (Para Styles: ChapterHead, H1-4 and Normal. Char Styles: MenuOption and Note, One OL and one UL. I'm sure I'll add a few more.) So I need to find a way for content authors to contribute and edit. (from what I've read, the PDF review will work well for review cycles. Seems my options are:
RH: I'm assuming that if I want them to use RH editor they all need a copy of RH @ $1,000 a seat, so that's out of the question.
Adobe Contribute may be an option: any using it with RH? IF so, how well does it integrate?
It seems my best option (to get the project approved and off the ground--read "low startup cost") is a simple free WYSIWYG HTML editor. I can supply everyone the CSS and a template, and they can create clean HTML. Anyone got any recommendations?
Other choices? Looking for suggestions
Any comments/suggestions on the above plan?
Regards
Mark

There is an article on my site about using Contribute. I tried it and how well it works depends on your level of patience and the people using it. I gave up after a while! RoboHelp has changed to XHTML since I tried so that may also be an issue.
The free HTML editors may not understand RoboHelp's processing instructions and may well munge them, be very careful. Some are based on the Gecko engine and my experience is that inserts tons of blank lines.
I think I would explore using Linking first. If that does not work for you, let them edit in Word and you then use Word's "compare files" function to find the changes and make them manually. We have also asked editors to mark any changes with three hash symbols so that we can search for the changes quickly. It may sound a bit archaic but it works very well.

Html editor for jsp

hello ppl,
is there any html editors entirely written in jsp.
i want to edit the content on weserver throught the editor.
which should have the source code available.
can u plz help me guys,
thanks

Do u think there exists any WYSIWYG HTML editor
written in JSP?They may exist, but should perform very poorly in perspective to the existing ones which are written in a clientside language, e.g. JavaScript (FckEditor and so on).
I don't even know what he actually mean?
May be he's trying for WYSIWYG editor for HTML/JSP.No, I am certainly sure that he is asking for an WYSIWYG editor written in JSP. At least, he is asking that literally in the topicstart.

Who can help me with replacing the standard HTML editor in WPC?

Hi all,
We have chosen to replace the standard HTML Editor in the Web Page Composer by the TinyMCE Editor. I have worked my way through the document written by Boris Magocsi (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f04b5c5d-3fd2-2a10-8ab0-8fa90e3ac162) and the TinyMCE Editor is diplayed when we add or edit a paragraph.
However, we can not type any text in the input field anymore and we can not click any of the buttons in the TinyMCE editor. Can anybody help a total Javascript newby with fixing this? Full points will be awarded obviuosly. Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Jan
Note: We are on NW 7.0 SP 15 and the WPC component is not patched yet. We are trying to complete that today and patch it to patch level 1.

Change or replace KM HTML Editor

Hi again,
I would like to customize the KM HTML Editor or replace it with another Editor.
Has anyone done that before?
If so, I'd like to know how to achieve that!
I know this might be very complicated, but I appreciate every little hint!
Best regards, Marko

I figured it out myself, under System Administration - System Configuration - Knowledge Management - Content Management
Utilities - Editing - HTML Editing
There are these options:
Always Use Secure HTML Editor
Allow Only Basic Formatting
Allow Links
Activate Clipboard Buttons
Allow Preview
Allow Indenting
Allow Tables
Allow Bullets and Numbering
Allow Images
Allow Text Size and Font Settings
Allow Color Settings
On Dev we had all options ticked so for us that meant 'Allow Only Basic Formatting' was giving limited icons on the HTML Editor toolbar. It is worth noting that if 'Always Use Secure HTML Editor' is not ticked then the other options dont do anything, it is all based around this first option.

Embeded html editor

Hello there:
In my project I wanted to add rich text support for the editor thus I used DefaultStyledDocument. It works fine, as it supports Bold/Italic/underline, foreground/background, etc, and I can save the data as the binary files. However, I was impressed by the online html editor like this: http://www.interspire.com/devedit/
I think Swing should be able to implement something like this. I don't really want my users able to access the html code, I just want my application to provide a WYSIWYG environment and the app is going to save the data as HTML files in the background.
I noticed there is a class extending DefaultStyledDocument, HTMLDocument, I am not sure if this class can help me reach my goal.
Any suggestions? Or link to some sample code?
Thanks a lot,
Sway

Hi Benjamin,
I believe the translator interface being talked about is IJsTranslation.
That may be a good place to start looking. It can be found in
org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.web.core.
The main JSDT specific extension point you'll probably use is:
org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.web.core.javascriptPreProcessor - where you specify
your translator.
Take a look in org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.web.core and
org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.web.ui to see how JSDT support gets added to the HTML
and JSP editors.
Thanks,
Chris

Run script in HTML editor in WebView WP8.1

I am developing an app in which I need to give HTML editing facility to the user. So I tried different HTML editors but finally TinyMCE was able to show controls for editing. But I am not able to set the contents of Editor. It gives Exception Exception
from HRESULT: 0x80020101. And I tried all different solutions but could not figure it out. Here is link to my project
string tinyMice = "<script type='text/javascript'> function myfun() {tinymce.execCommand('mceInsertContent', false, getQueryStrings());}myfun()</script>";
await System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
await webview_demo.InvokeScriptAsync("eval", new string[] { tinyMice });
Can somebody help?

hey,
I am not sure what you exactly want to do but I took a look at the project you uploaded.
First of all, you better use the NavigationCompleted or
FrameNavigationCompleted event for executing onload functions.
I have no idea about the tinymce js plugin but here is what I did to create a similar scenario.
1) First, create a js function in the removeformat.html to return a string (replacing your getQueryStrings functions)
function returnMessageValue() {
return "Hello JS World";
2) then create a script notify event handler and wire it up to the page so we can get alerts from the html page loaded.
In NavigationCompleted event:
string result = await this.webview_demo.InvokeScriptAsync("eval", new string[] { "window.alert = function (AlertMessage) {window.external.notify(AlertMessage)}" });
this will notify the webview about window.alert's. So we subscribe to the Script notify event:
webview_demo.ScriptNotify += (sender, args) =>
MessageDialog m = new MessageDialog(args.Value);
m.ShowAsync();
and finally the code execution for our function:
await webview_demo.InvokeScriptAsync("eval", new[] { "window.alert(returnMessageValue())" });
// await webview_demo.InvokeScriptAsync("eval",
// new[] { "tinymce.execCommand(\"mceInsertContent\", false, getQueryStrings())" });
result:
hope it helps

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!

JDev: Annoying feature of HTML editor

In the source pane of an html page write: Visit Oracle 
Now move the caret to the beginning to make an anchor: <a hVisit Oracle 
The auto-completion popup suggests "href". Press enter to accept it: <a href=" Oracle 
So, href is entered but the next word is being replaced. 
This issue appears always when it's about auto-completion in the HTML editor. It does discourage many people from using JDev for web apps.

It's true, just tried it.
You can get past this by putting a space infront of the Visit before typing the <a.
That is press home, space and left then <a.

Can I include both CSS and HTML codes in one Open HTML Editor.

Somehow Cell phones are not properly reading css codes. Is there any way to include both CSS and HTML codes in one Open HTML Editor?

Hammad, their code is fairly mobile friendly. Per my other discussion with you ( http://topliners.eloqua.com/thread/8532 ), Eloqua's code is responsive for the most part. Most of their issues lie with the styling of the email where you will get different fonts and different sized fonts throughout the email and some other minor display issues.
What you are trying to accomplish is extremely difficult to do because you do not have the access to the HTML to better control how the responsive template works which is why the Eloqua templates (and most ESP templates) stick to the more basic side of emails.
If you want to use Eloqua's WYSIWYG to make their responsive email you can do so, but I would recommend deleting all their body text before editing anything because of the inconsistencies in their code. Otherwise, I think you would be better off coding the emails outside of Eloqua using a 3rd party editor whether it's something more robust like Dreamweaver or Coda, or whether you feel comfortable working in a more text environment with programs like Notepad++ or Brackets.
At the end of the day remember you are paying Eloqua for these and if you choose to stick with the WYSIWYG and you are not getting the results you expect you need to tell Eloqua through your support channels.

Code errors are responsible for 98% of rendering problems. Your pages lack a valid doc type declaration which puts them into quirks mode.
On line #1 in code view, change this:
 <html>
to this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
At least that will give you a fighting chance of validating without errors. Use the online code validator below to check for other errors in all your site pages.
 http://validator.w3.org/
Incidentally, asking a non-coder to use Dreamweaver is form of punishment. Basic coding skills are necessary to get the most out of this product. Anything less is going to result in frustration and confusion.
It's worth noting that DW is NOT a WYSIWYG editor. Design View is at best, an approximation of what you can expect to see in some browsers. For best results, use Live View in Split View and edit the code.
