CKEditor and MS Works

Hi there,

I have users who try and copy/paste in to the editor from MS Works. What happens is that their browsers lock up, the script runs very, VERY slow, and in some for instances the user will have to restart the machine itself.

How do I make it so that a Works file is recognized for copy/paste in to the editor.

TIA for any help.

Hi DemonGoddess061,

could you please report this issue on our Development site, as described here, to let our developers investigate this? Attach a sample document that causes the browser to hang, give us the versions of MS Works, operating system, browser, and CKEditor that you are using.

Most importantly, however, if you are using a CKEditor version other than the latest one, please upgrade to 3.6.1 first. You can also try to reproduce it on the demo page and/or nightly version.

Documentation Manager, CKSource

See CKEditor 5 docs, CKEditor 4 docs, CKEditor 3 docs, CKFinder 3 docs, CKFinder 2 docs for help.
Visit the new CKEditor SDK for samples showcasing editor features to try out and download!

What I'm going to do is have one of the affected users try the demo option, and tell me step by step what happens.

I don't have Works, and none of the software I DO have will open a works file.
