I've just released Web Wiz Rich Text Editor version 2.0 beta 2 You can download the new beta version at (it's the v2 beta 2 version):- ../asp/sample_scripts/RTE_application.asp - http://www.webwiz.net/asp/sample_scripts/RTE_applicati on.asp An on-line demo version can be seen at:- http://www.richtexteditor.org/demo/ - http://www.richtexteditor.org/demo/ This 2nd beta fixes a number of bugs and quirks found in beta 1 and also adds a spell checker button (using SpellBound) for Mozilla and Firefox users. The new version should also be easier to integrate. 
If anyone would like to write more comprehensive install instructions
for the
final version then please do and I'll include them in the final
version, as good install instructions are never written well by the
developer as I have to much knowledge of the system for novice users
to understand what I'm on about.  ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Sorry I don't know spanish, could you translate the error to Engliosh so I can workout what the problem is. Also incase it is a corrupted file try reuploading. Also make sure you have edited the file includes/RTE_setup.asp to correctly setup the upload settings (check your file upload path and component). You also need to make sure you have write permissions on the directories you are uploading your files to. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Wow! This is truly an impressive upgrade. The Upload component itself is beautiful. Sorry for the "new guy" question; I was just so happy with the new editor I had to jump the gun. |

It's not easy to integrate into web wiz forums due to all the
customisation, forum permissions, forum codes, ability for users to
switch between different editors, etc. It took me the best aprt of a day, so you will probally need to wait for version 8 of web wiz forums to be released. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Hi..
I hope to use this in an IFrame environment where the RTE will be within an IFrame on the main page.
This way it can service several textarea's at once.
Now.. What I hope to do is to pass throught via the IFrame URL the form (frm1) and the control (textarea) of textbox to be updated.
This will be used by the ASP side to generate a piece of Javascript that will do essentially this
RTE.DivArea.Contents = parent.'frm1'.'textarea'.values
When the submit button on the RTE form is pressed then it will do a
parent.'frm1'.'textarea'.value = RTE.DivArea.Contents
and return the value to the calling control.
Can you tell me how to access and the correct calling proceedure to create and retrieve the contents of the RTE text.
Many Thanks
Marc ------------- Coding Coding Coding Keep those keyboards coding RAW CODE!!!!!! |

Again a fantastic peace of work. There are some things that may need some work that you may be addressing. The RTE has lost it’s capabilities to place a link using a picture, edit a link in a picture and text link within a document. There is also a bit of interesting text in the add pic part, the pr-view. Do you know what the translation is? Nice work all the same.
PS that is edit a link using

You can add links to images in beta 2. Insert the image, click on (highlight) the inserted image, then click on the 'add link' tool. The applied link will be set on the image. Links can not be edited, I have looked into this and can not find away around this, so you will need to delete incorrect links and place them in again. But there is a preview window on the add link tool to check your link is correct first before applying it. I've not seen any text that says 'pr-view', if there is can you point it as it should say 'preview' ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Thank you for that and yes the 'pr-view' is just a keyboard slip on my behalf. Interesting problem about editing the links in time they may be and answer but still top marks on the work you have put into this.
If I think of something that may help I will let you know but it seams if I think of it, you have been there and done it or tried. ------------- BoLt (Computer Engineer) I suffer from Dyslexia, it means I can not spell to well not that I am thick. www.welshlens.co.uk |

I was testing the image upload feature and the pop-up window was not tall enough to view the OK and Cancel buttons at the bottom of the pop-up. I fixed that within the code but I'm not sure if anyone else had this problem.
The other thing (that is impossible to address) is the garbage brought in by someone copying and pasting from programs such as MSWord. All the formatting is transferred into the editor when someone does that. Alas, that's a MS problem....

The button problem in the image pop-up only happens if your IE default
text size is set to large and therefore the 'preview' button is word
wrapped to the line bellow. I have fixed this in the next version by making the text field next to it smaller to prevent IE word wrapping the button. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

So far it's a great piece of work -borg-. This version is much easier to implement into an existing form than the previous ones. The only thing I have "struggled with" so far was populating the text area with data. It took me a few tries with the querystrings in RTE_message_form_inc.asp and RTE_textarea.asp to get the hang of it. After figuring it out, it's all pretty easy. ------------- http://webspacegeeks.com - Need Hosting, Domains, Dedicated Servers? http://www.smartergeek.com - web design | pc support | training | podcasts | video production |

| One other little suggestion for the image upload feature is to have a centered alignment option. There currently isn't an option to do that in the drop-down menu so the only way to do it is to insert the image and then center it in the editor itself. Not a big deal but it could confuse novice users trying to center an image between paragraphs at at the top of text. |

Is there such a things as align="center"? Most browsers don't seem to support this, at least Firefox doesn't, so this is why it is not presently an option. Firefox is currently grown to 12.5% of all visitors to this site from 6% a month ago, so it is growing quickly into one of the most popular browsers, and as it is much better than IE I can see why. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

You're right....Sorry about that.
It has to be done through a div or p tag, not the actual image tag itself.

Then you could click on the  center button once you inset your image, this will center your image in a div tag (browser dependent).

Hi, I am new to this forum so hello everybody. I just found this site on the net and I think the services/programs offered are great. I have a problem though. I installed the Rich text editor on my machine (local web server running asp, one host) and I run into the following problem: if I run RTE using Firefox it works like a champ. If I try to run from Internet Explorer (version 6 with patches etc) all I get are error messages. Object not defined, object required. Looks like the js files are not included somehow. Did anyone else exprience this? Any ideas what would be wrong? thanks, Attila |

Do you get the same problems with the demo version on this site or the RTE used in this forum?

No, on the demo site I can run it fine. Its only the downloaded
version. What is weird is that I cannot reproduce it using Firefox or
Mozilla. Only IE. In IE is unusable. Nothing works, since the js is not
working. thanks, Attila |

I stopped with the debugger and copied out the generated js-s into
separate files. I changed the include to the js instead of the asp and
now loads without error. Of course is not ok since the js content
should change. What would cause this though? It says syntax error line
18, line 15 if I try to load the js.asp includes. |

If it is not happening on the demo and you are testing it on a local
machine it could be some software running on your machine that is
preventing it from ruuning or you browser security settings. I've heard of things like Norton AV, Firewall, etc. from preventing items from running. Try disabling any software like this you have running on your computer. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Hm. I don't have firewall on this machine (I have a separate one). Google desktop search or mcafee av? Actually what I did now is that I included the js files directly into the asp page (instead of using src="..asp", i copy pasted into the file). Like this it is working fine. At least it seems to work. Do you see any issues with it? thanks for your prompt replies, Attila |
