Custom input types

Is there nobody who knows how to do this?

Please someone answer this...

I'll even make it easier, can I make a simple link on my page (the one that displays the editor) that when clicked adds certain html code to the textarea? How would I do this?

Please help me, I only have a few days left until this project is due!

i couldn't find the templates you were talking about, but I found some functions that should work but I can't figure it out.

Referencing this page: http://docs.fckeditor.net/FCKeditor_2.x ... ge_Samples

Here is the code I am trying but it isn't working

   <script language="JavaScript">
      var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('PageText') ;
   </script>
   
   <button onclick="oEditor.InsertHtml(<b>test</b>);">TEST</button>

so I found the sample and copied the text, confirmed that my function is being called but still no text is inserted into the WYSIWYG editor...

function InsertHTML( HTML ) {
   alert(HTML);
   var oEditor = FCKeditor.API.GetInstance('PageText' );

   oEditor.InsertHtml( '<b>TESTING</b>' );
}

The alert is just to confirm that the function is called and the html is being sent, which it does.

any ideas?

Please help, my time on this project is almost up!

Thanks

Yeah, I did check the samples directory, sample 8 just like you said. I tried doing the exact same thing that I saw in the sample but it still will not work, I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Code from the Sample

function InsertHTML()
{
   // Get the editor instance that we want to interact with.
   var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('FCKeditor1') ;

   // Check the active editing mode.
   if ( oEditor.EditMode == FCK_EDITMODE_WYSIWYG )
   {
      // Insert the desired HTML.
      oEditor.InsertHtml( '- This is some <a href="/Test1.html">sample<\/a> HTML -' ) ;
   }
   else
      alert( 'You must be on WYSIWYG mode!' ) ;
}

.... 

var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor( 'FCKeditor1' ) ;
oFCKeditor.BasePath   = sBasePath ;
oFCKeditor.Value   = '<p>This is some <strong>sample text<\/strong>. You are using <a href="http://www.fckeditor.net/">FCKeditor<\/a>.<\/p>' ;
oFCKeditor.Create() ;

....

      <input type="button" value="Insert HTML" onclick="InsertHTML();" />

My code

      <tr>
         <td colspan="2"><script type="text/javascript" src="fckeditor/fckeditor.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('PageText');
oFCKeditor.BasePath = "fckeditor/"; oFCKeditor.InstanceName = "PageText"; oFCKeditor.Value = "<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> // Truncated text //"; oFCKeditor.Width = "600px"; oFCKeditor.Height = "750px"; oFCKeditor.ToolbarSet = "WebPageManager"; 
oFCKeditor.Create();

function InsertHTML( HTML ) {
  var oEditor = FCKeditor.API.GetInstance('PageText' );

  oEditor.InsertHtml( '<b>TESTING</b>' );
}
</script>
</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
         <td colspan="2"><input type="button" value="Insert HTML" onclick="InsertHTML('TESTING');" />
         </td>
      </tr>

I took out the check to see if it was in WYSIWYG editor mode just to have one less thing to troubleshoot.

Any ideas? I'm down to under a week until this project has to be finished and I am getting nowhere with this.

DUDE, IT WORKED!

Thanks so much for pointing out that oversight

Okay I got just about everything to work, I have a drop down list of items and when I select an item I use the javascript onchange event to insert the text into the WYSIWYG editor.

But, when i add the html, it all gets messed up since I'm adding html within html kind of thing. So how do I put the html in the InsertHtml function without it messing up the html on my page?

I'm trying to insert <object> code to display a video on the page.

<select onchange="InsertHTML(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value);">

<option value="{$v.doc_file}">{$v.doc_name}</option>

Where {$v.doc_file} is the file location, this works, but how do I integrate it with this code:

<OBJECT id="VIDEO" width="320" height="240" 
   style="position:absolute; left:0;top:0;"
   CLASSID="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6"
   type="application/x-oleobject">
   
   <PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE="{$v.file_url}">
   <PARAM NAME="SendPlayStateChangeEvents" VALUE="True">
   <PARAM NAME="AutoStart" VALUE="True">
   <PARAM name="uiMode" value="none">
   <PARAM name="PlayCount" value="9999">
</OBJECT>

Anybody?
