WYSIWYG New thread/Reply

This is sorta neat... everything, instead of having the old-school type-in text box for replies and new threads, you have a Frontpage-like visual editor for your replies!

Supports colors, and everything! Here's how to install...

1. Back up your newreply and newthread templates, just in case. (I'm not responsible if you screw up and blow up your house.)

2. Instead of me giving you pieces of the templates to modify, since there are huge modifications, I'll just give you the templates themselves. You usually won't have to change anything, unless you installed some hacks that modify the newreply or newthread templates.

3. When people are posting/replying, be sure to let them know that before they can submit the form, they have to press the 'save' button that's on the toolbar.

4. Upload the images attached to forums/images/toolbar directory.

5. Enjoy!:bunny:

New version available here.

If I left out anything...let me know. ^_^

Okay, here's an updated version.

Bug Fixes:
- Ability to quote
- You can submit form without pressing 'save'

ToDo:
- Add BBCode support
- Hack vbcode.js to allow inserts of smilies and BBCode.
- Allow toggling of HTML/WYSIWYG mode.
- Add this hack to the edit and PM templates.

Just replace your existing newthread and newreply templates with your new ones.


Update: New templates and instructions in post #79.

As I said in my previous post, I'm working on it...

[Vinney]

i love this hack but there is a prob :

look my this thread on my forum

http://forum.peugeot-gti.net/showthr...threadid=10741

if some types, it goes scrolls way way to the right.

It seems that that person added a few tags of his/her own to the post... when I go to view source, everything looks normal, except for the presence of some <xmp> tags...

[eiSecure]

Okay... I found out the problem... it seems that there is a <pre> tag between the text...

It'll be fixed when I upload the next update.

[Vinney]

cheers.

When I click submit, it says "please complete message form"?

I've more or less cut&pasted the templates from post #51 (with slight alterations to make it fit the layout).

Some of the earlier posts mention a save-function, but where am I supposed to insert it in the template?

When you modified it, did you change any of the javascript and/or input box code?

I didn't think I had, but when I tried to run your template unaltered I had no problems. :surprised: Dayum. Now, I have to search through my modified template now to find the error.
