going nuts trying to make ANY plugin work...

I have no idea what is going on here. I want to create a new button, so I started and kept getting "unknown toolbar item xx". Then I tried just using the placeholder plugin as it is already written and I get the same issue.

Here is the code...

                     <cfscript> 
                        fckEditor = createObject("component", "includes.fckeditor.fckeditor"); 
                        fckEditor.instanceName = "emailContent"; 
                        fckEditor.value = "#form.emailContent#"; 
                        fckEditor.basePath = "/includes/fckeditor/"; 
                        fckEditor.width = 786; 
                        fckEditor.height = 400; 
                        fckEditor.toolbarset = 'BasicText'; // corresponds to config in the js file referenced below 
                        fckEditor.Config["CustomConfigurationsPath"] = "/admin/assets/fck-cfg.js"; 
                        fckEditor.create(); 
                     </cfscript>

Where is your code to load the plugin?

It's the first one. I am using ColdFusion, forogot to mention that.

I think this is what basically gets output after CF parses it...

<input type="hidden" id="emailContent" name="emailContent" value="&lt;p&gt;fsdfsd fdsf d sdf sdf sdf sdfsdfsdfsdf sdfsd fsdfsdf&lt;/p&gt;" style="display:none" />
<input type="hidden" id="emailContent___Config" value="CustomConfigurationsPath=/admin/assets/fck-cfg.js" style="display:none" />
<iframe id="emailContent___Frame" src="/includes/fckeditor/editor/fckeditor.html?InstanceName=emailContent&amp;Toolbar=BasicText" width="786" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

Ok, so you aren't instructing the editor to load ANY plugin.

Please, check the samples.

Ya, it was in the fckconfig

FCKConfig.PluginsPath = FCKConfig.BasePath + 'plugins/' ;
FCKConfig.Plugins.Add( 'ukgpreview' );
//FCKConfig.Plugins.Add( 'placeholder' ) ;

but anyway, I guess it was some sort of caching issue cause all of a sudden it started working

Re: going nuts trying to make ANY plugin work...

Do you have any idea how you got the caching problem to go away? I'm having exactly the same problem on both Firefox and IE.

Here's the relevant chunk of my javascript:
oFCKeditor.ToolbarSet = 'Basic' ;
oFCKeditor.Create() ;

And here's an additional toolbar set in my fckconfig.js (the main one in the fckeditor directory)

FCKConfig.ToolbarSets["Greg"] = [
['Bold','Italic','-','OrderedList','UnorderedList','-','Link','Unlink','-','About'],
'/',
['Style','FontFormat','FontName','FontSize'],
['TextColor','BGColor'],
['FitWindow','ShowBlocks','-','About'] // No comma for the last row.
] ;

FCKConfig.ToolbarSets["Basic"] = [
['Bold','Italic','-','OrderedList','UnorderedList','-','Link','Unlink','-','About']
] ;

If I change this line
oFCKeditor.ToolbarSet = 'Basic' ;

to this
oFCKeditor.ToolbarSet = 'Greg ;

and then redeploy to JBoss and refresh my page I get the message "Toolbar Set "Greg" does not exist".

I've even stopped my server, did a full clean, compile, deploy back to JBoss and the restarted the server. Same issue. It can't seem to find the new tool bar.

I checked the deploy directory for JBoss and the new config with the "Greg" ToolbarSet was deployed. So I'm a bit lost as to how to get this tool bar set to show up.

Thank you for any help you folks can give.

Got it.

I found the solution in another thread. I had to add
oFCKeditor.BasePath = '/fckeditor/' ;

So the base path wasn't being picked up the way I expected it. I had to define it specifically.
