Simply choose the option 'generate
WYSIWYG editor for memo fields' when you generate your
asp files, then choose which fields you would like to
have the editor for.
After you have generated then browse to your edit and
add screens and the WYSIWYG editor will be available
to use - simple!
Tips for using the editor - upload the images you may
want to use in your articles first into the image
library - they will then be available in the insert_image
feature on the editor.
Hold the SHIFT key when hitting RETURN/ENTER down for
a single carriage return
Use the <> function to display the html that the
editor is generating - you can then edit the html yourself
if you should so wish.
Technical Details
The WYSIWYG editor requires internet explorer 5.5 or
above to work.
You can download the latest version of internet explorer
from
http://www.microsoft.com/ie
The insert image code relies on having the actual domain
of your site ( e.g http://www.mysite.com ) within one
of the functions - when your code is generated then
the default domain is 'localhost'.
After testing locally you may upload to your site -
there are 2 lines of code that you need to change when
you change your domain in order for the insert image
function to work.
Open the file insert_image.asp in your asp editor or
a text editor - if you have line numbers available to
you then it is lines 342 and 343 that we will be changing.
These are towards the bottom of the page and will look
somethinglike this
inpImgURL.value = "http://localhost/mySite/admin"
+ sURL;
txtFileName.value = "http://localhost/mySite/admin"
+ sURL;
Now lets say you are uploading to your site www.mySite.com
You will need to change the 2 lines to ...
inpImgURL.value = "http://www.mySite.com/admin"
+ sURL;
txtFileName.value = "http://www.mySite.com/admin"
+ sURL;
Or if you were uploading to a subfolder of mySite.com
then
inpImgURL.value = "http://www.mySite.com/subfolder/admin"
+ sURL;
txtFileName.value = "http://www.mySite.com/subfolder/admin"
+ sURL;
Thats it ! - save the file insert_image.asp
If you have written articles locally and then upload
them - then, after changing the above lines you will
need to reupdate your images - you can do this by deleting
the image then using the insert image again - or editing
the html using the <> html editor function within
the editor.
