FckEditor + relevant

• Can I "easily" upgrade the version of FCKeditor?
• I understand that migrating to Yahoo! RTE is not a top priority, but do you have an idea when you think this will be done ?
• "FCKeditor works in a dialog though. Maybe you could use that as a workaround for now". Didn't get this. It's maybe my english, but what do you mean by "dialog"? Do you have an example?

Mmm, there are a few issues with the FCKeditor, including these:

http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=307371&group_id=168&atid=350207
http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=306264&group_id=168&atid=350207
http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=305555&group_id=168&atid=350207

Also, we don't use the latest version of FCKeditor:

One plan was to migrate to the Yahoo! RTE and hope that it is better supported:

http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=307370&group_id=168&atid=350207

RTE also supports Safari and Opera, which is great plus. The upgrade to the latest YUI library, which is a prerequisite for RTE, is almost completed, so hopefully RTE can be integrated soon (maybe by keeping FCK in at the same time for people who prefer it).

FCKeditor works in a dialog though. Maybe you could use that as a workaround for now.

I have a strange behaviour. The following code will work :
      <xforms:instance id="news-template">
         <news xmlns="">           <item mode="view">             <subject />
            <date/>
            <contributors/>
            <content/>
            <comment/>
          </item>
        </news>
      </xforms:instance> 
      <xforms:bind nodeset="item" relevant="@mode = 'view'" />
      <xforms:group class="addNews" ref="instance('news-template') ">
            <xforms:trigger id="addNews" ref=".[item/@mode != 'view']"
appearance="minimal">               <xforms:label> ../design/images/add.gif </xforms:label>
              <xforms:setvalue ref="item/@mode" ev:event="DOMActivate"
value="'view'" />
            </xforms:trigger>
            <br />
            <br />
            <xforms:textarea mediatype="text/html" ref="content" >                <xforms:label class="news-label">Content</xforms:label>
            </xforms:textarea>

As you can see, like I set mode to view, to bind revelant is true, so
FCKEditor appears and it works fine. Now, if I modifiy in my news-template
instance mode to noView. Relevant will be false. So the editor will not
appear. That's ok too. When I click on my add button, the trigger will
change to view, so the editor will appear. Right to this point, everything
is perfect. But now, I cannot write INSIDE the editor. Impossible. If I then
go over a button in the editor, let's say the bold button, I see the
following error in firefox's firebug console:

uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code:
0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMNSHTMLDocument.execCommand]"  nsresult:

before_unload(beforeunload )
in common.js, line 121

So how come the relevant property screws up everything ? I tried a setfocus,
but it didn't work out. Anybody has an idea ?
