Load HTML into the FCKEditor

I can store my code perfectly and retrieve it from the database.

What I can't do is to place the retrieved HTML source into FCK for editing. What's the name of the field, and how can I access it, that holds the source for the text viewed.

I really appreciate any help.

RE: Load HTML into the FCKEditor

That should be quite simple and basic, depends on what scripting language you use.

In ColdFusion, I use this command:

<cfmodule template="fckeditor/fckeditor.cfm" instanceName="i_text" width="580" height="500" toolbarSetName="" canUpload="" canBrowse="" FCKeditorBasePath="fckeditor/" initialValue="#i_text#">

In the parameter initialValue, you output the html source.

RE: Load HTML into the FCKEditor

That didn't work to me... in JavaScript I try:

var oFCKeditor;
oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('Editor','550',120) ;
...
oFCKeditor.initialValue = '<strong>b</strong>';

But the bold "b" doesn't show in the editor as I visualize it on the page. Any other advice?

Did you read this thread: https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php ... _id=257180
It might be helpfull for your problem.

Here they used this javascript to "inject" code into the content area:

document.frames("iframe_#instanceName#").document.all.objContent.DOM.body.innerHTML = content;

RE: Load HTML into the FCKEditor

I discovered that this won't work in the PHP version unless you add the following to line 75 of fckeditor.php:

id =\"iframe_#instanceName#\"

It should be added anywhere inside the <IFRAME tag.
