Tablecommands plugin

Hi mitchellbonzo !

there is 1 file to edit in order to use the table commands buttons : fckconfig.js

This is the file that is used by fckeditor to config plugins, toolbar etc...

in this file, you have a table called ToolbarSets. Check it out, and add the table commands as in this sample code :

FCKConfig.ToolbarSets['MyToolBar'] = [
['Help','Cut','Copy','Paste'],
['Undo','Redo','-','Find','Replace'],

// INSERTING TABLE COMMANDS HERE
['Table','TableInsertRow','TableDeleteRows','TableInsertColumn','TableDeleteColumns',
'TableInsertCell','TableDeleteCells','TableMergeCells','TableSplitCell'],
'/',
['Style','Bold','Italic','Underline','RemoveFormat'],
['OrderedList','UnorderedList','-','Outdent','Indent'],
['JustifyLeft','JustifyCenter','JustifyRight','JustifyFull'],
['SpecialChar','-','Source','Preview']
];


Then, at the end of the file, you can add a line that tells fckeditor to load a plugin, that will informe fckeditor how to add the buttons of the table commands like "insertRow", "splitCell" etc...

you tell him to add a plugin like this :

var sPluginPath = FCKConfig.BasePath.substr(0, FCKConfig.BasePath.length - 7) + 'editor/plugins/' ;
// FCKConfig.Plugins.Add('plugin name','language', 'path')
FCKConfig.Plugins.Add( 'tablecommands', null, sPluginPath ) ;

where sPluginPath is a string (since the s at the begining of the variable name) that contains the path to the plugins directory.

I think this is basically what you should do to get it work. Feel free to ask questions if it dosen't and we'll try to help you.
