Background color in FCKEditor (in Plone)

I'm trying to use FCKEditor 2.4.2 on a plone 2.5 site.

It seems like the background color is hardcoded to white in this editor, which make it hard to use on a site with black background.

If I use Firefox I can set

.ArchetypesRichWidget {
background-color:black;
}

in ploneCustom.css. But this has no effect when I'm using Internet Explorer.

Has anyone encountered this problem and solved it, or can anyone tell me how I set the backgroundcolor in FCKEditor in general?

RE: Background color in FCKEditor (in Plone)

You can set the editorArea's backgroundcolor by changing the body class in 'editor/css/fck_editorarea.css'

Re: Background color in FCKEditor (in Plone)

I'm having exactly the same problem. Editing 'editor/css/fck_editorarea.css' didn't help at all. The background in IE remains white. Firefox displays the page correctly as it uses the global background color.

Any ideas?

Found it !

Just modify the file : editor/css/fck_editorarea.css

Change the item background-color in the body style to match the color you want !

Bye!

Re: Background color in FCKEditor (in Plone)

I had a similar issue in Drupal, and found that modifying the editor/css/fck_editorarea.css and clearing caches did nothing. I finally found the solution that worked for me (and might for someone else). I opened fckeditor.css and added a body CSS declaration with the background-color set:

body{
background-color:#ffffff !important;
}

Hope this helps someone else!
