Styles, paid support request.

Currently the Styles drop down adds HTML in the form of

<span style="background-color: yellow">test here</span>

I would like to use an external style sheet (external to the FCK Editor) and have the class applied so if my external style sheet has a

.highlight_text{
color:red;
}

Another config file would associate the class names with their attributes e.g.

highlight-"highlight text"

and the config file would be parsed at runtime to generate the drop down list (or what ever would work). Parsing the names of the styles directly would work too e.g. Parse for .highlight_text{ and remove the underscore to generate the drop down list.

Then the styles drop down has 'highlight text' and I get to call the style directly from the sheet. The HTML would then be

<span class="highlight_text">test here</span>

The advantage would be I can use PHP to swap the stylesheet that is loaded or update it without modifying the FCK editor code at all. Currently if I make text red using the FCK editor and save it to a file I need to open up that file and change all references from red to blue in the inline styles. If it was done using the method I'm suggesting then changing the text from red to blue would be a single change in the external stylesheet.

The FCK end user would have the same experience, website developers using FCK would have more control, inline styles would be a thing of the past and everyone would live happily ever after.

We would be willing to pay to have the FCK editor modified to include this feature. If this is something you feel you can do, please let me know by private message or in this thread with a quote for the mod.

Thanks
