Hi there fredck
I have not loged on for ages, and noticed you asked for me to post my fkeditor asp.net web part code. (c# class file)
i have got it working in the editor zone as well. do you still want the code.
if so just ask i dont mind passing it over.
Thanks Karl.

Rough Guide.
when you create a web part class file, override the editor zone and implemet your own function there. just like adding a text box to editor zone, just add fck editor instead and it all works fine.
Then you will get the sharepoint feel of things......

Re: Fro attention of fredck (FCKeditor web part)
Hi Karl,

Yes, it would still be nice to look at your code. We'll be coding the server side integration of V3 in the next months, so we could consider integrating it.
All this code is supposed to be open, so feel free to attach it to this thread with any comments you may have regarding it.
Also... a "legal" detail... to be able to use your code, I need to ask you to e-sign our CLA. So, please register at our dev site, and let me know your user name. I'll give you write permissions to that page then.
Thanks for your contribution

Re: Fro attention of fredck (FCKeditor web part)
Hi There.
I have registered at http://dev.fckeditor.net/ as ( sharepointuk ).
Hop this helps, just let me know what i need to do about the iance thing if this is any good to ya.
Here is the code that i worte.
I have tested it in both users scopes with multimly instance of the web part on the page and all ok.
Step 1: Add file to App_Code folder
Step 2: Add web part to catalouge in web parts manager
Step 3: Log in and open up catalouge view and add web part to page.
Step 4: open edit view and now the web parts edit function is avaiable.
Step 5: Hit edit and the editors zone of the web part manager appears with fck eiftor as the text editor.
You can see where i set the base bath i createchildcontrols. You can set all your other options here. Intellsens works fine on _contentToEdit.Whatever. It would not take too much work to allow all these function via the editor zone as well. So each implemation of the web part cn have sperate setting like the inpage version.
May have a bit of time to do bit some work on it if ya ned as well.
Thanks Karl.
Re: Fro attention of fredck (FCKeditor web part)
Thanks for the code Karl. As said before, we'll not be working on it right now, as we are still working on the V3 core, but we'll keep it here for future reference.
I've given you write permissions at our dev site. You can now add your name to our CLA:

Feel free to drop me a PM for any doubt. Thanks!

Re: Fro attention of fredck (FCKeditor web part)
Thanks Fredck
All done on the agrement.
Here is a very good link to MSDN Libary that put me on the right road to creating this web part.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... table.aspx
I will revisit this code after christmass and post a full working web site with example as there are many parts that make up a web portal with web parts.
Notes to intrested parties.....
You need to implment these functions to get a basic ASP.NET web portal working.
http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStartv2 ... fault.aspx
Understanding this will enable you to do a lot.
But this has nothing to do with web parts
a good book for web parts is.
Pro ASP.NET 3.5 Server Controls & Ajax Components (apress - Rob Cameron and Dale Michalk) 10 out of 10.
The first MSDN link is also a ver good link to getting the basics working well. ~ It shows you how to tye in things and how to implement your own soloution.
Pitfalls
My main pit fall when reasearching this subject was.
1: Editing in shared shope.
This whole subject is not well documented, but this is megga important. By default the web parts are only enabled in user scope. You have to give the mechenisim to switch to shared scope.
You enable shared scope in the web config like this
This enables the designated user to enter shared scope for web parts that support this. Remeber you have to supply a link to enable the user to switch scope.

Re: Fro attention of fredck (FCKeditor web part)
I hadn't seen this post and I'm not able (at present) to work on webparts, only the Sharepoint theme.
Fortunately, I have a Javascript file inserted in the page along with the theme and I've just finished updating it to overwrite the MS Javascript functions for the Rich Text Editor.
Now calling the CKEditor in a light box type view, my only gripe so far is it's a little slow to load the toolbar images - I'm reviewing v3.2.1 now to see if it's any better.
Next I want to make sure the CKEditor is loading everywhere is should be, I noticed a query webpart was loading a floating Rich Text Editor toolbar (MS), not sure if I can do the same or similar with CKEditor...
Thanks again, great and useful post!
