bluh wort bowr blah
are you sure
Actually, one reason I wanted this new editor was that now pasting into this new editor doesn't break the formatting.
Spellcheck worked for me in firefox and chrome. Also yeah, what GMH said is another reason we were after a new editor too.
[EDIT] oh, the right clicking for suggestions is blocked...forgot about that since I disable js that replaces/blocks context menus on my firefox, which I just nuked said context menu
^^Yeah, okay, that's quite an improvement, then.
Er...there seems to be no text color option...
In theory, I assume you should be able to do it by using the "Edit CSS Style" menu (third button from the right on the bottom row) though that hasn't actually worked for me.
Test?
Works for me.
Ah, wait, no, it's all or nothing...that's not very useful...
What really pisses me off about the new editor is that the html editor is limited. It strips out any embed tags and and treats all attempts at newline whitespace as you want a new paragraph in the post.
Oh yeah, UE, delta534 discovered that Youtube embeds don't work right.
Also, I think this editor somehow interprets enter (i.e. new paragraph) as either double newline or newline + newparagraph, so paragraphs are kinda spaced apart.
Using HTML source editor, this is one paragraph.
And this is another. Without a line in between.
And this is a third, with a br / in between the second and the third.
Hunh. it really is like this.
Just posting the youtube link works, but trying to post a video using the html codes in the html editor does not.
delta: are you trying to use the iframe youtube gives on the share button, or a standard embed tag
Standard embed tags. The html editor seems to strip out the embed tag. After looking at the javascript of the editor it does strip out embed tags along with br,img and object tags.
well, object tags work. try an embed, since I can't seem to find youtube's embed code anymore; all they give is an iframe. oh, thar it is, it's the 'old embed code'. use that, since generally allowing iframes isn't a good idea.
Here is what I tried to use
It does not even show up.
Here is the reference youtube embed code
So I can't even post my "I never asked for this" standard response video!?
Just post the youtube link as plain text. That still works.
now embed tags work; it just converts them to object tags for you when pasting it in and updating (since technically embed tags were never supported by standards anyway; object tags were. embed is just a netscape leftover
)
That works, now we can post things videos that are not youtube videos.
such as this:
Oh thank god for that.
This thread is too long. Just came here to say it's ugly and I hate it (the reply box, not the thread, but the thread isn't all that hot either).
That never was much of a problem for me. At least, it always worked when pasting into plain text
Anyway, is there a way to reduce the distance between paragraphs? It looks rather ridiculous.
I chopped off the extra margins
tags normally have, so the only thing there is how there's extra
tags showing up. what browser you using Juan?
Maybe using only p and not br would be better? I don't know what the actual markup is right now but, yeah.
It's only adding
tags for me; no
tags sneak their way in.
Also the image embed thing is really really annoying.
lol what is even going on here
