Thanks James.  For the benefit of other people, the same problem occurs with Firefox using <b> and IE using <strong>.

I'm using a nightly release of xinha downloaded on 11 January 2006

I'm finding that if I italicise text in a xinha text area using IE 6.0 it produces code with <em> tags in, whereas Firefox 1.0.7 produces code with <i> tags in.

This probably wouldn't matter too much, except that my application is a tool to allow users to edit contents of a database, and it compares database contents with form contents to see if the user has changed anything without saving.  Unfortunately if one person edits a record using IE, and then someone else loads the same record later using Firefox, xinha in Firefox changes the <em> tags to <i> tags in my text areas, and so warns the user that they've changed the data.

I can work-around this on the server when doing the comparison, but I was just puzzled as to why xinha running in the two browsers is working so differently.

Thanks,

Marrtin

#4 User Discussion & Help » Change default display font » 2005-03-30 13:40:14

I'm using xinha nightly release downloaded today (30 March).

I want to make an x-area where I've locked down the formatting (i.e. the user cannot change the text font, size or style - I just want them to be able to bold, hyperlink and similar things).

I've used

       xinha_config.toolbar = 

  [
    ["bold","italic","separator"],
    ["insertorderedlist","insertunorderedlist","outdent","indent","separator"],
    ["inserthorizontalrule","createlink"],
    ["undo","redo"], (HTMLArea.is_gecko ? [] : ["cut","copy","paste"]),["separator"],
    ["killword","removeformat","separator","htmlmode","about"]
  ];

in the <HEAD> tag of my web page, and that works correctly to give me what I want.

So now I would like to change the default display font and size of my x-area.  I've tried

        xinha_config.pageStyle = 'font-family: verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 11px;';

based on experience with htmlArea2, but it isn't working. 

Any suggestions please?
