changing background color

How can I change the background color of the FCKeditor?

Can this be done by setting a property while initializing FCKeditor?

Or do I have to specify the default page backgorund color in the css stylesheet?

Will changing the backgroundcolor of the editor area also effect the style drop down box?

If not, how can I change the style select box background color?

thanks

Thanks!

Changing background color works fine.

But I still can't figure out how to change the color of the css styles select box... Any help please?

RE: changing background color

when I switch to source code and back to wyswyg view the background color is not remembered. Is this preventable?

RE: changing background color

Try a function like this:

function setBGCol(fldName,bgCol) {
var editor_frame = document.getElementById(fldName + "___Frame");
var editor_source = editor_frame.contentWindow.document.getElementById("eEditorArea");
editor_source.contentWindow.document.body.style.backgroundColor = bgCol;
}

You could use this function for pretty much any property of the editor window by replacing "style.backgroundColor" with whatever property you want to change.
