Hi
When i want to add a story , HTML Area 2 is not visible in Mozilla whereas in IE , its visible.

Is there a work around this problem.

HTMLArea 2 is only compatible with IE for windows.

You'll need to use HTMLArea3 or RTE on mozilla win/mac. There are also some commercial packages that work on Mozilla.

I use RTE. It comes standard with the new Mambo installs and is a great editor. It works very well with FireFox on 2000, XP or OSX.

Thanks for the info.

But i think HTML Area 3 is buggy

That it is... Though I've heard more recent CVS releases have improved. As noted, RTE is probably your best bet. Doesn't have tons of features, but the ones it does all work.

II'll give out RTE a test

MamboZ

You can download HTMLArea3 XTD:
http://mosforge.net/frs/?group_id=157

If you have any problems with the menu icons/images, change the code in the file .../editor/htmlarea3_xtd/htmlarea_xtd.js.php

var img = document.createElement("img");
img.src = btn[1];
img.style.width = "18px";
img.style.height = "18px";
el.appendChild(img);


to

/* image problem
var img = document.createElement("img");
img.src = btn[1];
img.style.width = "18px";
img.style.height = "18px";
el.appendChild(img);
*/
el.innerHTML = '<img src="'+ btn[1] +'" width="18" height="18">';


That's all folks.

For those of us who upgraded our mambo installs, would we be able to just change the $mosConfig_editor line in our configuration.php to "rte"?

Also I see a number of files in the /editor directory:

editor.php editor.wysiwygpro.php htmlarea3
editor.htmlarea2.php editor.rte.php editor.xstandard.php index.html
editor.htmlarea3.php editor.typetool75.php htmlarea2 rte

Are each of these editor.x.php files alternative editors, or just configuration files for ones that you could install? (seems like the latter, but I just wanted to make sure)

Cheers,
Rich

That correct, or you could just go into the Global Configuration area of your Admin Backend and type 'rte' in the editor field.


Your assuption is correct, they are just config files for ones that you can install into mambo and use immediately.

For editors other than those with existing conffig files, you would have to create a new config file as to get it to interface with mambo.
