Xinha Discussion Forum

Is there a button you use for it?  Am I missing how you actually execute it?

Thanks,
Will

Do you have an example link of what this looks like?

Thanks,
Will

Great work Yermo.  I dont think anyone will mind at all that you are fixing up the mess of htmlarea.  It appeared to me xinha was just adopted and had not been rewritten for performance or ease of use since htmlarea, so this is definitely needed given the amount of development that needs to be done to get xinha where we all want to see it.

Have you already seen a performance increase in your version?

This is the way wsywiygPRO does paste as word.  Which allows it to be run through a php filter I believe.  Yes this is a very nice way to do it.

sure just fyi I tested the following editors for over a month before deciding to go with Xinha:

1. Kevin Roths
2. TinyRTE
3. TinyMCE
4. wysiwygPRO
5. FCKeditor
6. p42.net's
7. HTMLarea

Xinha was the only one that could do what we needed (to build an online tutorial system).  It exploits bugs in every other editor that prevents full use.  I will reference features from some of these:

1. (HIGH PRIORITY) Get ENTER to work correctly in IE
2. Popups in Div's.  (FCK, wywisygPRO)
3. Unlink button
4. Search and Replace
5. Paste from word (instead of cleaning tags) (I like the way wysiwygPRO does this best)
6. Paste as plain text
7. Having source/editor in tabs at the bottom (wysiwygPRO)

i'll fill in more later.

But cant you just create a link from there to get more exposure?  Not actually use their system.  I've tested them all and xinha is the best but I know lots of people dont know about it.

I might be because im using tabbrowser extensions or something, but if it doesnt work for me theres going to be more then enough users sending me emails about it.

I also didnt like the lag of FCK.  It seems when you mouse over a menu or even loading it, it takes a while to respond.  Xinha is much quicker (thought much less developed at this point).

We had another problem when loading images from multiple editors on the same page.  Most other editors have this same bug.  Xinha was one of the only ones that does not.

I wonder if xinha would get more development being on sourceforge?

Will

renamed the push and moved the thing out of the form submit and changed it around for the onsubmit button -- now it works

We have multiple editors on the page...

I tried on the older version we were using then downloaded the nightly and it had the same problem.

then make sure you download the latest nightly example http://xinha.gogo.co.nz/xinha-nightly.zip and use the same config settings or check out the Newbie Guide

If you do that you should have the same results.
