FCKEditor Issues with Final release

[eggheaddesign]

Hi Guys

A couple of days ago, I downloaded the evaluation of what I presume was the 7.0 final release.

I came across an issue: when I used the image upload feature of FCKEditor I got a problem. An error message popped up telling me that "The server didn't send back a proper XML response".

Turns out that FCKEditor is not configured by default for aspx pages.

To get it working, I have to make modifications to two files:

1. fckeditor/fckconfig.js lines 270/271 should read like this:

var _FileBrowserLanguage = 'aspx' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso | perl | php | py
var _QuickUploadLanguage = 'aspx' ; // asp | aspx | cfm | lasso | perl | php | py

2. fckeditor/editor/filemanager/connectors/aspx/config.ascx

Quick fix: alter line 41 to return true. More comlicated fix: implement authorisation checking code

Kind of surprised that nobody else has spotted this.....makes me wonder if I'm doing something wrong.......

Cheers

Tony

I think a lot of us aren't using the FCKeditor.

Hi Judy

I think a lot of us aren't using the FCKeditor.

What do you use instead? Just the inline text editor?

Thanks

I tried FCKEditor on my DNN site and it put in so much junk. One of my clients tried that and tried using some other WYSIWYG editor and both put in extra junk or broke the page (the other editor he was using put everything in a <form> block and the page already generates that.)Anyway, I personally think the best way to do it if you need more than just <li> or <p> and you can't do it in notepad is a simple editor like HTML Kit that doesn't put extra stuff it. It is free at http://www.chami.com. I do very little product management, but when my son did product managment for a big site in Able in the past, that is what he used.
