WYSIWYG Input

Hello,

how can I put the content from my database into the iframe used by the wysiwyg-editor shown on this site. There was already an information about that topic here in the forums, but I can't find it now. Please help me. Thank you!

I think you're talking about EditWorksPro. If you already have EWP, and you want to know how to use it, try Ben's Tutorial.

No, I'm talking about the general WYSIWYG-tutorial, which can be found on devarticles. I've already setup the editor with a lot more functions than described here (tables, image selection etc.) but the only problem I have is how to get the content back into the iframe when I want to edit an already existing article.

Ah, I see.

I think that you could add this line in your Javscript code, in the "Init()" function (Note - this code is not PHP! It's in between the Javascript tags).



That should do it

Edit: Tested it, and it works. Hooray.

Theres a really cool feature called search, and if you look for wysiwyg you will find at least 30 threads on the subject

Thank you for your help. It's right that waym, but now I have two new problems:

All tags produced by the wysiwyg editor are in capital/big letters like <P> or <B>. What can I do to force the editor to use small letters?

And the second problem is that the editor uses line breaks always after the <p> tag ist used. The problem is that when I import the data from my db the editor only shows data which is on the first line of the source and I can't remove the line breaks with "str_replace", "chop()", "trim()" or sth. like that.

It seems like Holyworld have got most of it figured out.

Maybe you could help me out.

Like you I have made an image selection but I can't figure out how to get the image i select into the iframe

How do you do it???

How do you mean image select??? could you please explain in more detail what your trying to do

Thank you for the quick respond
I have made an external php page that opens when I click the image button in the wysiwyg editor. The page reads all the images from a image directory, and shows them in small size. Just beside the image I have made a link.

I would like this link to transfer/send the path and image information back to the editor.

I called it 'image selection' because that was the word Holyworld used in his post.
