changing behavior for the Enter key

If you put the following into a blank "fckplugin.js" and put that in a folder named say "fckonkeydown" in your plugin directory and then put FCKConfig.Plugins.Add('fckonkeydown') ; in your fckconfig.js, it should show you what's possible. It basically captures or intercepts the onkeydown event within the editor.

I'm not sure if it's kosher or not but it seems to work...

This code is "rough around the edges"...
usual caveats apply...

-ps I added a ContentMaxLength plugin to the plugin tracker which utilizes the same stuff, so it updates on every keypress in IE.

/* fckplugin.js */
function FCKOnKeyDownFunction(){
alert('Hello Enter Key!');
}


function DocD_OnKeyDown()
{
var e = FCK.EditorWindow.event ;
var alreadyRun = false;
// alert(e.keyCode);
switch ( e.keyCode )
{
case 13 : // ENTER
if ( !(e.ctrlKey || e.altKey || e.shiftKey) )
{
e.cancelBubble = true ;
e.returnValue = false;
if (alreadyRun == false) {
FCKOnKeyDownFunction();
alreadyRun = true
}
return true;
}
else {
return true;
}
break ;
}
return true ;
}

var woot = function(e) {
var alreadyRun = false;
// checks if enter key alone was pressed, and if so, say hello!
if (e.which == 13 && !e.shiftKey && !e.ctrlKey && !e.altKey) {
if (alreadyRun == false) {
FCKOnKeyDownFunction();
alreadyRun = true
}
return false;
}
};

if (document.all) { // If Internet Explorer.
FCK.EditorDocument.attachEvent("onkeydown", DocD_OnKeyDown ) ;
} else { // If Gecko.
FCK.EditorDocument.addEventListener( 'keypress', woot, true ) ;
}

I haven't checked the wiki, but I think that something like you wrote should be there as a example "how to intercept a key press event"

Sounds like a wonderful idea. Where would it go? I'm happy to add it, if I have the power...

Happy almost-birthday Jesus!

How about: http://wiki.fckeditor.net/ )

Ah thanks )

Ha ha.

I know where the wiki is (although from my lack of contribution I could see why you'd remind me .

My question was more of where on the wiki should I add it?

I was thinking under "Customization" and mabe adding "Code Snippits" or "Example Code" or some such. What do you think? Anyone? I'm open to suggestions. Really open.

***
Hehe. And most people have trouble with that whole concept. Grok on man, grok on... )

so what about "How to" section?
****
Do you mean this "grok"?
http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition ... 16,00.html

Not sure why you'd get a "undefined" other than the spelling if off (case maybe)... have you tried just replacing the guts of FCKOnKeyDownFunction with your function?

Also, I left out two lines in the gecko intercepter that stop the onkeydown event from propagating.
That func should read like this:

if (e.which == 13 && !e.shiftKey && !e.ctrlKey && !e.altKey) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
if (alreadyRun == false) {
FCKOnKeyDownFunction();
alreadyRun = true
}
return false;
}

I've cleaned up a version of this and renamed it to denonkeydown (in case of name conflicts somewhere down the road) which I will submit as a plugin and add to the wiki at some point in the near future.

MTFBWY!
