I recently noticed that if you style your links in a page and load it
into the editor it will still use the default blue text with an
underline decoration.
I experimented just by taken this out to see what happens and it does
allow the link to be styled but some other funny things happen
specifically with the "Remove Link" editor command. It seems to
remove the <a> but adds a <span> back in its place and then adds the
styling to the span to match the original link styling.
Does anyone know the history behind this entry in EditorOverride.css?
I am writing an application that embeds xulrunner and uses the mozilla
editor and what other potential problems might I run into if I remove
this entry to suppress the user styled links?
Apparently the editor disables something called the preference
stylesheet which among other things sets the default text, background
and link colours. The styles were added to restore the appearance of
links, although I guess they didn't try it out on styled links.
The reason that "Remove Link" changes your <a> to a <span> is that the
editor has no reason to remove your inline style, so it doesn't. For a
similar example, consider changing a list from an <ol> to a <ul>, why
should the editor delete the inline style?
