CKEditor in review
- CKEditor 4.3.1 should be out this week. It will contain a number of fixes, many of which are related to Internet Explorer (IE8-IE11). It will also include a few accessibility improvements. Here's a short list of fixes:
- Fixed a Firefox issue where the caret would disappear after dragging a widget
- Fixed an IE11 issue where the editor crashes when in Quirks Mode
- Tweaked the widget drag handler so it's fully visible when inline widget is in a heading
- Changed the Enhanced Image button, context menu, command, and icon names to match those of the Image plugin.
- Fixed pasting from Microsoft Office Word so table froms don't lose the value of border attributes
- Improved JAWS compatibility so it reads disbaled buttons as unavailable
- Improved JAWS compatibility so it reads out the selected item on the language menu
- And much more...
Around the Net
- CKEditor core JavaScript developer, Piotr Jasiun, attended the Warsaw Git Kata over the weekend. A Git Kata is a workshop that helps you master git usage and understand its advanced techniques. It's a place where you can share knowledge on the git version control system. Here are a few pics from the event:
