Re: How to make text read only

The idea is that you use the FCKeditor (Its name is editor after all), only for editing the text. Then to display it to a user (in view-only mode), you simply write the contents of the field (From a form in HTML, or from a dababase) exactly as is. That field will contain all tags to have it display exactly as entered using the editor, and will display to the user as such. In other words for View-Only mode, there is no need for FCKeditor. Good luck...

Dear all,

I have a similar problem, that i want to use FCKEditor for view mode. The only thing in FCK that I need is the print button, and I don't want user to modify the text in FCK. All i want is user can print it but can not modify it.

Thanks before,

Archanon
