Add/Remove FCKEditor dynamically

Hi all,

I have come across a problem. I need your help. Thanks!

Basically, what I want is have multiple FCKEditor frame in one page. We can add new FCKEditor and remove the existing one.
The following image shows what I want.

However, the buttons are not really working.
Add New buttons will generate Error while processing response: htmlEditor has no properties
errors.

Remove buttons sometimes work but have problems which I don't know.

Have anyone done this before? Could you please share here? Thanks a lot!
I attached my xhtml code as well.

The example you attached is using <xi:include href="input:data"/>, and
because of this does not run in the XForms sandbox. Would you be able
to create an example that runs in the XForms sandbox, so we can
reproduce this problem more easily?

You can also find more on reporting issue with an example that runs in
the sandbox in this FAQ entry:

I see. The problem is the the FCK editor doesn't work in repeats at
this point. We already have a bug for this that I linked below. Now I
have 2 answers for this:

1) In the short term, since the FCK editor is a fairly heavy
component, it is often not very practical to have many FCK editors on
the page. So what others have done is to have just one FCK editor, for
instance in a dialog, that you display and bind to the right node when
the user clicks on an "edit this" trigger.

2) We are planning to switch to another rich editor (the YUI RTE),
which will be a lighter component, and will work in repeats. The plan
is to still support the FCK editor for those who absolutely depend on
it, but the RTE will be used by default.

Re: Add/Remove FCKEditor dynamically

Hi Alex,

Thanks a lot for this!
It seems FCK editor can work in xform:repeats. It just doesn't work for
add new: <xforms:insert ev:event="DOMActivate"
I am just wondering is it worth for me to try to modify some core code
to fix this? Is it very complicate inside?

The solution one sounds good for me as well. If the core code is too
hard to modify, I will go for this one.

Cheers,
cheney

Re: Add/Remove FCKEditor dynamically

sorry about my English....

I mean if it is too hard(coding) to have multiple FCK editors working
for <xforms:insert , I would like to choose solution one you suggest. It
is faster and easier.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your information.
I think we will wait Orbeon to support YUI RTE.
Does YUI RTE support custom plugins?

Just a question, how can we trace when it will be supported by Orbeon?

Cheers,
cheney
