Couldn't be change the tag font into style attribute? This could be great for using the output on XHTML sites. It is strange because if I use change font, the editor generate code with Style instead of tag Font Face="x". If I change size the editor generate tag Font Size="x". Can this be solved? |

The RTE uses the RTE API of the web browser you are using. It is the web browser that creates the HTML code. If you use Firefox it will use style tags, but if you use IE it will produce sloppy code which uses things like FONT tags. ------------- 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 |

Oh my GOD!  That's unmanageable!PS: Anyway the above beheaviour was referred to Firefox last version 2.0.0.3. I was looking for a very simple text area editor with this only feature: bold, color, size. Optionally, italic, underline, the alignement and links. Stop. BUT, the output code must be XHTML 1.0 strict or 1.1, avoiding the user to destroy the validation of the page. Instead I find lots of online editor that use stuff like <font size="x"> RTE is one of the few that have only the problem of <font size="x"> while is using Style for any other thing. Anyway... after you answer I tried with IE and that change everything... I got <font face> instead of Style="font-family" i got with FF.... so I must abandon. Thanks a lot. |
