put at the beginning of everything

Hi,

I have the same problem, but I think it just affects Google Chrome. It doesn't seem to affect IE or FireFox.

Did you manage to find a fix? I couldn't find anyone else who fixed it.

Thanks

The same problem is in Safari 3

hi ,plz change fckconfig,js file to this:

FCKConfig.FillEmptyBlocks = false;
this will solve problem.

No, I'm having the same problem, and I have FillEmptyBlocks = false and it still does it. Any other thoughts?

I use a separate window that captures the contents of the FCKEditor and replaces the   with just an empty space previous to saving off the file. While this is not ideal, one should expect that there is some massaging of the data previous to saving. I use a simple CString myval.Remove(" ");. Of course this is VC++. You can also do the same type of affect in any language. JavaScript for instance allows this ability to replace - this is good if you have a button at the bottom of your HTML page that captures the contents and saves off using something like AJAX or some other scripting language whether it be Server side or not. The idea being that you basically are cleaning up previous to saving. I also do this to enforce the contents are XHTML compliant - in 2.6.3 there are some quirks requiring cleanup.

I realize this is not a direct answer but this is the idea on how to resolve. I get the issues as well so I understand. Or better yet - useless <span> withno attributes - in my contents. ugh..

Yes. I have the same problem with Chrome. Firefox 2 works fine, and IE 7(I change to FCKConfig.FillEmptyBlocks = false

I've got this issue as well, I've been running with

FCKConfig.FillEmptyBlocks = false;
FCKConfig.IgnoreEmptyParagraphValue = true;

This fixed it on Firefox 3.5.7, but the problem remains on Safari (4.0.4) and Chrome - I'm guessing any webkit browser??

This is such a painful issue, as you don't even need to focus on the editor, as soon as the page load its adds in these characters - so if the editor is part of a larger form (and isn't it always?) and you open the form to edit some other attribute you unwittingly stuff up the editor content.

Hi,

By hooking into the OnComplete method you can check the value and do something about it. Note that if you set the value to empty quotes it STILL puts in the &nbsp; (e.g. editor.SetHTML( '' ) ). This appears to do the trick for me.

Note that I'm using jQuery for this method. I haven't tested this very well but initially on Chrome it appears to do the trick.

I've edited this to include a fix for a problem which appears to affect IE9 which leaves a single "<br />" in the editor when the input is an empty string. Use at your own risk.

function FCKeditor_OnComplete( editor )
{
   if( editor.GetHTML() == ' ' )
   {
      jQuery( editor.EditorDocument.body ).html( '' );
   }
   
   window.setTimeout( function() {
      if( editor.GetHTML() == '<br />' )
      {
         editor.SetHTML( '' );
      }
   }, 100 );
}

This helps me a lot.
