Custom Configuration File 404 Error Message

Hello,

I have been experimenting with FCKeditor in Coldfusion 8. I have amended the fckcongif.js file to create a custom toolbar and it is working perfectly. However, I have more than one website on my server and I want to be able to link a different stylesheet for each website to each website's FCKeditor.

I know that the first step is to create a custom configuration file within each website root directory and include some code on the page where the FCKeditor is located to link to the custom configuration file. I have created a page to test this, but I get an error.

Here is my code:

<html>
  <head>
   <script type="text/javascript">
    var oFCKeditor=new FCKeditor("MyToolbar");
    oFCKeditor.Config["CustomConfigurationsPath"]="myConfig.js" ;
    oFCKeditor.Create();   
   </script>   
  </head>

  <body>
    <cfform action="##" method="post">
      <cftextarea richtext="true" name="MyToolbar" toolbar="MyToolbar" />
    </cfform>
  </body>
</html>

Here is the error:

404 /fckeditor/editor/fckeditor.html

My test and custom configuration files are both located in the following directory.

C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\Websites\@Lab

Please could someone let me know what I am doing wrong?

Re: Custom Configuration File 404 Error Message

You have to have the BasePath of FCKeditor set, like:

oFCKeditor.BasePath = '/my/path/to/fckeditor/

Also, your custom configuration file path should start with a slash:

oFCKeditor.Config["CustomConfigurationsPath"]="/myConfig.js" ;

Frederico,

Thank you for your help.

I have amended my code as follows:

<html>
  <head>
   <script type="text/javascript">
    var oFCKeditor=new FCKeditor("MyToolbar");
    oFCKeditor.BasePath="C:/ColdFusion8/wwwroot/Websites/@Labs/Lab1/fckeditor/";
    oFCKeditor.Config["CustomConfigurationsPath"]="/myConfig.js" ;
    oFCKeditor.Create();   
   </script>   
  </head>

  <body>
    <cfform action="##" method="post">
      <cftextarea richtext="true" name="MyToolbar" toolbar="MyToolbar" />
    </cfform>
  </body>
</html>

However, Firefox is displaying the following message when I attempt to load the text editor.

"ALERT: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (c) isn't associated with any program."

Do you know how I can get rid of this message?

Also, how do I link to a CSS file?

Re: Custom Configuration File 404 Error Message

The basepath is absolute to your webapp root and not to your hard drive.
