Bolding - Italics - Underline cannot be turned off in IE

I have a feeling it's a more common problem than people realize. We have the problem too and there are two issues open tracking this....

http://dev.fckeditor.net/ticket/2834
http://dev.fckeditor.net/ticket/2156

We've tried both the fixes suggested in issue 2156 but neither seemed to work. Would be interesting to know if these fixes work for anyone else.

Anyone got any suggestions on how we might get the priority of this issue raised?

Thanks.

I've had some great support from a guy called Alfonso on this issue (a big thank you for helping us our here). Anyway, you can resolve this with the following....

You can get the latest patch for this issue from here....

http://dev.fckeditor.net/attachment/tic ... 56_3.patch

Files patched...

editor/_source/internals/fckdomtools.js
editor/_source/internals/fckxhtml.js
editor/_source/internals/fckxhtml_ie.js


Then you need the fckeditor packager from here.....

http://www.fckeditor.net/fckpackager

Then follow these steps:

1. Apply the patches to the three source files.
2. Copy the packager into the main FCKeditor directory.
3. Then run a command like this (I'm using the php version of the packager here)...

C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\dev\fck_bold\fckeditor>"C:\Program Files\xampp\php\php.exe" "C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\dev\fck_bold\fckeditor\fckpackager.php"


This produces these two files....

fckeditor/editor/js/fckeditorcode_gecko.js
fckeditor/editor/js/fckeditorcode_ie.js

With these two files replaced the issue is resolved.

   if (typeof(FCKeditorAPI)!=='undefined') {
   
      var $tabs = $('#tabs').tabs();
      var selected = $tabs.tabs('option', 'selected'); // => 0
      if (selected == 0) {
         var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('home_page_message') ;
         if (typeof(oEditor.EditorDocument)!=='undefined') {
            //var xhtml = oEditor.GetHTML( true );  //This messes up with the BIU formatting, so we use jQuery
            
            var htmlJQuery = $(oEditor.EditorDocument.body).html();
            $("#previewHomePageMessageBoard").html( htmlJQuery );
         }
      }
   }
