[Done v1.3.9c] FCKeditor shows raw HTML markup in product descriptions with v1.3.9b

[kitcorsa]

cant seem to get an editor to work in 1.3.9b.....

tried the fck editor and the modual loads in but the text area still displayes the html even with souce off... tired installing the ck editor and this wont load... pages load till the text area and stop.

Im getting the same issue with the latest version of FCK (off the free add-ons).

After an upgrade to 1.3.9b...

Initial Content in the database:

<b>Heading</b>
<br />
Descriptive text goes here.

FCK seems not to be stripping the html tags and replacing them with html ccharacter codes, so when I RE-OPEN in Plain Text editor mode, I see the content as:

<b>Heading</b>
<br />
Descriptive text goes here.

... So when this shows in a BROWSER, it looks like base HTML !

Removed FCK...

... and now HTMLArea has died completely too..

Tried a re-install of HTMLArea (out of 1.3.9b package). Also, checked relevant files in Admin relating to the editors.

No luck...

Edit /admin/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php
On line 404 you'll see this:

                $oFCKeditor->Value = (isset($products_description[$languages[$i]['id']])) ? htmlspecialchars($products_description[$languages[$i]['id']]) : htmlspecialchars(zen_get_products_description($pInfo->products_id, $languages[$i]['id'])) ;

replace it with this:

                $oFCKeditor->Value = (isset($products_description[$languages[$i]['id']])) ? $products_description[$languages[$i]['id']] : zen_get_products_description($pInfo->products_id, $languages[$i]['id']);

If using other product-types as well, repeat for those similarly.

Unfortunately, you'll have to clean up any damaged HTML by hand. The editor will not do it for you.

This fix will be included in v1.3.9c

Html problem is also occurring on editing EZ pages with FCKeditor 2.6.4.1 on zcart 1.3.9c. Suspect there is a similar fix

Hi,

I'm also having this problem when editing ezpages on 1.3.9e. It shows the code in the editing box.

I know there was a fix for this somewhere on the forum, I encountered the same issue with 1.3.9a but found the fix here somewhere!

Today I've read every post about ezpages and fckeditors (all versions) but can't find it, boohoo!!

Please help!

If fckeditor is that critical to your needs, then make the same type of edit to the ezpages script as was posted above for products.

CKEditor is more contemporary and is recommended far more highly than fckeditor.

Thanks for that, I kind of figured so but couldn't find where to edit it. Your reply somehow reminded me to use the developers toolkit to find it, I'm forever forgetting that fab tool teehee!

Anyway for anyone else that's interested I edited admin/ezpages.php:

Changed line 434 from

$oFCKeditor->Value = htmlspecialchars($ezInfo->pages_html_text); 

To

$oFCKeditor->Value = $ezInfo->pages_html_text; 

And now it works fine in EZPages again.

worked for me too, with v1.3.9f and fck file editor__fckeditor_plugin_2-6-4-1.zip


thanks.
