Found article very helpful. There is really no one out there with a solution. Now I’m a bit stuck. I’m trying to use an Ajax post back to submit the content inside the text editor. So that the entire form does not reload. But everything besides the editor content goes through. Do you know of a work around for this issue?…much appreciated…jarrett

Hi Matt,

Very interesting article. I have been searching for this holy grail for a little while now and I’m really surprised it doesn’t seem to exist online anywhere… It sounds like a bit of a mission though, well done for sorting it out. However I was a little disapointed after all that build up to get to a ‘Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.’ message when I tried to view your example. Let me know if you get it online again somewhere and I’ll check it out.

[...] I’ve been asked a few times about presenting an example of FCKEditor and edit-in-place. I’ve even posted several articles on my thought process making FCKEditor work as an edit-in-place editor (at first here, then here and here). So, I figured I’d let the world see all this Topic Maps Engine work — I currently call it MH.TME (I was going to call it “Bob”, but certain friends didn’t think that name would catch on). [...]

Sorry - a copy/paste

You just need this part:

FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance(’FCKeditor1′).Commands.GetCommand(’NewPage’).Execute();

I use the same code to fire ‘FitWindow’ after the editor completes loading - that is why it was there…

Just fire the button code!

function FCKeditor_OnComplete( editorInstance )
{
FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance(’FCKeditor1′).Commands.GetCommand(’NewPage’).Execute();
}

Hi,

i am using FCKEditor with ajax in my site, but using it in a very simple way. i was able to post the text and after the ajax responce, i want to clear the content in the FCK Editor, like the way how it works when the new page is clicked. can you please tell me the function to clear the text in FCKEditor.

Thanks ! …

Good work Chris!

My work suggests that is also the case - you don’t need Prototype to do AJAX and FCKeditor.

Hey,

I just figured out how do Edit-In-Place using the FCKEditor, and I did not have to use prototype or any of the other libraries.

Using FireFox, I was able to load up the FCKEditor like you normally would, and then I looked at the DOM to see what changes were made. I am now replicating those changes by using javascript/ajax functionality.

It was a little tricky to figure out, but the code is not that complex. You can see a basic working example at:

http://www.chriscrawford.com/iis/fckajax/fckajax.htm

Feel free to download the source and the .js page. The one page you will not be able to download is the FCKAjax2.asp page, but all it is doing is a response.write and sending the form data back to the calling page.

This works great in IE6, IE7, and FireFox. I’ve not tested it in any other browsers.

Enjoy,
Chris Crawford

I don’t think the people who write FCKeditor write very good documentation. There is the wiki, but it’s not much better than the documentation on the website itself.

I’ve not yet found any other forums with a decent knowledge of the API or its other features together with worked examples.

If I find one, though, I will definitely let everyone know!

Do you know where I can find a complete documentation of all the FCK functions? I’m reading a code making intensive use of their “API” and nothing’s documented, I’m really in PAIN here

Stuff like RegisterCommand, CreateElement, etc.

Thanks.

Hi,
this is nice. I have been looking to use fckeditor for inplace editing. Do you have any link to a demo that demonstrate it in action. Please let me know if put up a demo.
