RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute
I wouldn't set up a separate instance for title...use a text field. For a teaser and a text field, then you'd need a separate instance unless you just wanted a short 2-line teaser with no htmlthen use a textarea. It isn't a big issue with using more than one instance. Besides, you'd have to use more than one instance of any other form field type to accomplish the same.

RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute
Problem is pulling in either word or other text documents or older html documents from the database. There's no way a text-editor would know how to properly transform that format into our own custom XML. I'm afraid that will still have to be a manual process. XHTML seems like a better step, as from what I believe it's just an 'XML standard that happens to have the syntax of html'.

RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute
Hey thanks Pete, you guys make a good product. We're now using version 3 with stylesheets and custom classes - huge improvement. We've taken out the style toolbars that would allow you to change size/color/font, and have replaced them with a set of standard classes. The problem now though is pulling in all of the content that was created with 2.5. There is still a great deal of and other static styles which don't really give our content a consistent feel (at least looking at the source it doesn't). Word documents are much better, but still heavily garbled with unsightly markup - even after filtering. I understand that this may be a limitation of the MS provided "word filter". So thanks for improving the product, we did choose yours for a reason. I'd just like to see a solid format for storing content long-term and still being able to change its presentation 10 years down the road if needed. The goal is to have our content people focusing on their substantive areas of expertise, and not the technical aspects of "why do I have to paste this into notepad and then redo all of the styles again?". That has been a huge process for them - converting a bunch of old dreamweaver code into ActiveEdit, and you can imagine the looks I got when I told them we were upgrading to version 3. All I could say was that it was for their own good :| Hopefully my original msg wasn't taken as being overly critical of your guys' product, was more of a general complaint towards the common markup woes that we still all have to deal with for some reason :) Adam. > -Original Message- > From: Pete Freitag [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 3:21 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute > > > Adam, in ActivEdit 3.0 we added a bunch of regular > expressions, and parsers > to clean up Word content pasted into the control, it's not > perfect but it > does get rid of lots of extraneous markup when you paste from > Word.

RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute
Adam, in ActivEdit 3.0 we added a bunch of regular expressions, and parsers to clean up Word content pasted into the control, it's not perfect but it does get rid of lots of extraneous markup when you paste from Word. Are you using Version 3? As for the HTML that ActivEdit generates (actually it's the ActiveX control that generates the HTML in most cases), it is valid HTML 3.2. Many people prefer XHTML output these days, and we do have a CFX tag that will convert HTML 3.2 or 4 into XHTML or vise versa, if your interested let me know. The next version of ActivEdit will address these issues further. You can also set a stylesheet for use within activedit via the stylesheet attribute. _ Pete Freitag CTO, CFDEV.COM http://www.cfdev.com/ -Original Message- From: Cantrell, Adam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 1:33 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute I'd like to see an editor that only defines classes in a div or a span, and which provides a default style sheet.

It just completely goes against the concept of separating content from style, but I just can't think of a suitable alternative to doing it this way until we can: a. Go through all of our old content stripping out all of the markup, and then restylizing it using the new editor's classes. b.

RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute
I'd like to see an editor that only defines classes in a div or a span, and which provides a default style sheet. The extent of the html would be very simple , , and XHTML compliant. One problem I see with this is pulling in word documents, or old HTML with tables and invalid markup. We're currently using ActiveEdit, and even though it's working well, I have this really uneasy feeling about the HTML it's producing. It just completely goes against the concept of separating content from style, but I just can't think of a suitable alternative to doing it this way until we can: a. Go through all of our old content stripping out all of the markup, and then restylizing it using the new editor's classes. b. Make the decision to never paste word documents, or old html into the editor without first "cleansing" it in notepad, and then restylizing it within the editor. That would be a complete administrative nightmare. Is anyone else feeling the same concerns, and has anyone taken measures to address this? I'd be interested in hearing what you did.

RE: MM Rich Text Editor - WAS: RE: Macromedia Contribute
I've used soEditor before (EZ-Edit I believe it used to be?) - and that's what I still use actually. I know there's a new version, I'm going to weigh it in as well. I've always been happy with it - but I'm building a large-scale application that's going to support many thousand users and before I go jump into anything I want to evaluate a few of them.

All of the Flash-based editors seem to suffer from the same problem; they support a limited amount of HTML. While it is understandable that a 400kB plug-in can't render every bit of HTML, it isn't cool that the text component all these editors are based on strips away HTML it doesn't understand.
