[Beta] bbcode Table Maker

This Hack is in BETA Status!

Version: 0.3
I have test it in vb3.5.0 / vb3.5.1 and it works perfectly! :laugh:

Changelog:
*[12.11.2005] Version 0.3
- correct some code to insert the new vbcode tags
- build new bbcode cache
- set new permissions (only Admin, Mods and Supermods can use the popup)

On a german wbb board community www.web-dynamic.de i found a little javascript code (Thanks to Snoopy for this nice code) - that can translate the given html code to bbcode - and here is now my vb3.5.x Version.

To see how this hack works: [ Flash DEMO ]

Description:
We all can include own vbcodes like [table], [td] or [tr] but it is very hard to create a table because you need a lot of code like the follow:

[table=50%][tr=tcat][td]1[/td][td]2[/td][td]3[/td][/tr][tr=alt2][td]A[/td][td]B[/td][td]C[/td][/tr][tr=alt1][td]F[/td][td]E[/td][td]WE[/td][/tr][tr=alt2][td]2w[/td][td]dd[/td][td]w[/td][/tr][/table]

Permissions:
When a user create a new tablecode and after he had transfered the code to the editor, he can delete some tags and your forum looks very bad after he save the post - i have set the permissons for the Popup so that only Admins, Mods and Supermods can use the PopUp.
=> product-bbcode-table-03.xml (15.2 KB) = only admins & mods can use the PopUp
=> product-bbcode-table-03_no_perm.xml (15.0 KB) = all usergroups can use this Popup

Installation:
After the Product Import you must only upload a small gif file for the Editor (look at the Attachments)
(copy it to ..../YOURFORUM/images/bbcode_table.gif)

Known BUGS:
The transfer from the popup to the WYSIWYG Editor doesn?t work at this time - i have try to find the correct code but i have no more time now . So when you have any ideas please help me to fix it.

Here is the old code from vb3.0.x :

var bname = navigator.appName;
 if (bname == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")
 {
 var newins = opener.document.frames["htmlwindow"].innerHTML + insert;
 opener.document.frames["htmlwindow"].innerHTML = newins;
 opener.document.frames["htmlwindow"].focus();
 self.close();
 }
 else
 {
 var newins = opener.htmlbox.body.innerHTML + insert;
 opener.htmlbox.body.innerHTML = newins;
 opener.htmlbox.body.focus();
 self.close();
 }

I hope somebody can change it to run in the vb3.5.1 WYSIWYG Editor :ermm:

I will try to give my best support to you ... :nervous:

The transfer from the popup to the WYSIWYG Editor doesn?t work at this time

The transfer from the popup to the WYSIWYG Editor works like a charm.

Many Thanks.

I'm using 3.6.1 and can't see it in the WYSIWYG...???

Is there any way to edit the table at a later stage without having to deal in code as it's very difficult to see what you're doing at the moment. Perhaps in WYSIWYG or maybe an edit tag somewhere that opens the code in a pop up window and resubmits it?
