Version 2.5 Beta
New Features and Improvements:
- [#624] [#634] [#1300] [#1301]
Official compatibility support with Opera 9.50 and Safari 3
(WebKit based browsers actually). These browsers are still in Beta, but we are confident
that we'll have amazing results as soon as they get stable. We are continuously
collaborating with Opera Software and Apple to bring a wonderful FCKeditor experience
over their browser platforms.
- [#494] Introduced
the new Style System. We are not anymore relaying on browser features
to apply and remove styles, which guarantees that the editor will behave in
the same way in all browsers. It is an incredibly flexible system,
which aims to fit all developer's needs, from Flash content or HTML4 to XHTML 1.0
Strict or XHTML 1.1:
- All basic formatting features, like Bold and Italic, can be precisely controlled
by using the configuration file (CoreStyles setting). It means that now,
the Bold button, for example, can produce <b>, <strong>, <span class...>,
<span style...> or anything the developer prefers.
- Again with the CoreStyles setting, each block format, font, size, and even
the color pickers can precisely reflect end developer's needs.
- Because of the above changes, font sizes are much more flexible. Any kind of
font unit can be used, including a mix of units.
- All styles, including toolbar bottom styles, are precisely controlled when being
applied to the document. FCKeditor uses an element table derived from the W3C XHTML
DTDs to precisely create the elements, guarantee standards compliant code.
- No more <font> tags... well... actually, the system is so flexible
that it is up to you to use them or not.
- It is possible to configure FCKeditor to produce a truly semantic aware and
XHTML 1.1 compliant code. Check out sample14.html.
- It's also possible to precisely control which inline elements must be removed with
the "Remove All" button, by using the "RemoveFormatTags"
setting.
- [#1231] [#160] Paragraph indentation
and justification now uses style attributes and don't create unnecessary
elements, and <blockquote> is not anymore used for it. Now, even CSS classes
can be used to indent or align text.
- All paragraph formatting features work well when EnterMode=br.
- [#172] All paragraph
formatting features work well when list items too.
- [#1197] [#132] The toolbar
now presents a new button for Blockquote. The indentation button
will not anymore be used for that.
- [#125] Table's
columns size can now be changed by dragging on cell borders, with
the "dragresizetable" plugin.
- The EditorAreaCSS config option can now also be set to a string of paths separated
by commas.
- [#212] New "Show
Blocks" command button in toolbar to show block details in the editing
area.
- [#915] The
undo/redo system has been revamped to work the same across Internet Explorer
and Gecko-based browsers (e.g. Firefox). A number of critical bugs in the undo/redo
system are also fixed.
- [#194] The editor
now uses the Data Processor technology, which makes it possible
to handle different input formats. A sample of it may be found at "editor/plugins/bbcode/_sample",
that shows some simple BBCode support.
- [#145] The "htaccess.txt"
file has been renamed to ".htaccess" as it doesn't bring security concerns, being
active out of the box.
- File Browser and Quick Upload changes:
- [#163] Attention: The default connector
in fckconfig.js has been changed from ASP to PHP. If you are using ASP remember
to change the _FileBrowserLanguage and _QuickUploadLanguage settings in your fckconfig.js.
[#454] The file
browser and upload connectors have been unified so they can reuse the same configuration
settings.
- [#865] The ASP
and PHP connectors have been improved so it's easy to select the location of the
destination folder for each file type, and it's no longer necessary to use the "file",
"image", "flash" subfolders
Attention: The location of
all the connectors have been changed in the fckconfig.js file. Please check your
settings to match the current ones. Also review carefully the config file for your
server language.
- [#688] Now the
Perl quick upload is available.
- [#575] The Python
connector has been rewritten as a WSGI app to be fully compatible with the latest
python frameworks and servers. The QuickUpload feature has been added as well as
all the features available in the PHP connector. Thanks to Mariano Reingart.
- [#561] The ASP
connector provides an AbsolutePath setting so it's possible to set the url to a
full domain or a relative path and specify that way the physical folder where the
files are stored..
- [#333] The Quick
Upload now can use the same ServerPath parameter as the full connector.
- [#199] The AllowedCommands
configuration setting is available in the asp and php connectors so it's possible
to disallow the upload of files (although the "select file" button will still be
available in the file browser).
- [#100] A new configuration
directive "FCKConfig.EditorAreaStyles" has been implemented to allow setting editing
area styles from JavaScript.
- [#102] HTML code
generated by the "Paste As Plain Text" feature now obeys the EnterMode setting.
- [#1266] Introducing
the HtmlEncodeOutput setting to instruct the editor to HTML-encode some characters
(&, < and >) in the posted data.
- [#357] Added a
"Remove Anchor" option in the context menu for anchors.
- [#1060] Compatibility
checks with Firefox 3.0 Alpha.
- [#817] [#1077] New "Merge
Down/Right" commands for merging tables cells in non-Gecko browsers.
- [#1288] The "More
Colors..." button in color selector popup has been made optional and configurable
by the EnableMoreFontColors option.
- [#356] The
Find and Replace dialogs are now unified into a single dialog with tabs.
- [#549] Added a
'None' option to the FCKConfig.ToolbarLocation option to allow for hidden toolbars.
- [#1313] An XHTML
1.1 target editor sample has been created as sample14.html.
- The ASP, ColdFusion and PHP integration have been aligned to our standards.

<form> or <hr> inside <p>.

it was possible to paste or apply formatting to the rest of the page in IE.
- [#137] Fixed FCKConfig.TabSpaces
being ignored, and weird behaviors when pressing tab in edit source mode.
- [#268] Fixed special
XHTML characters present in event attribute values being converted inappropriately
when switching to source view.
- [#272] The toolbar
was cut sometimes in IE to just one row if there are multiple instances of the editor.
- [#515] Tables
in Firefox didn't inherit font styles properly in Standards mode.
- [#321] If FCKeditor
is initially hidden in Firefox it will no longer be necessary to call the oEditor.MakeEditable()
function.
- [#299] The 'Browse
Server' button in the Image and Flash dialogs was a little too high.
- [#931] The BodyId
and BodyClass configuration settings weren't applied in the preview window.

event listeners will now get executed only once.
- [#289] Removed
debugging popups from page load regarding JavaScript and CSS loading errors.
- [#328] [#346] [#404] Fixed a number of problems
regarding <pre> blocks:
- Leading whitespaces and line breaks in <pre> blocks are trimmed when the user
switches between editor mode and source mode;
- Pressing Enter inside a <pre> block would split the block into two, but the
expected behavior is simply inserting a line break;
- Simple line breaks inside <pre> blocks entered in source mode are being turned
into <br> tags when the user switches to editor mode and back.
- [#581] Fixed the
issue where the "Maximize the editor size" toolbar button stops working if any of
the following occurs:
- There exists a form input whose name or id is "style" in FCKeditor's host form;
- There exists a form input whose name or id is "className" in FCKeditor's host form;
- There exists a form and a form input whose name of id is "style" in the editing
frame.
- [#183] Fixed the
issue when FCKeditor is being executed in a custom application with the WebBrowser
ActiveX control, hiding the WebBrowser control would incorrectly invoke FCKeditor's
cleanup routines, causing FCKeditor to stop working.
- [#539] Fixed the
issue where right clicking on a table inside the editing frame in Firefox would
cause the editor the scroll to the top of the document.
- [#523] Fixed the
issue where, under certain circumstances, FCKeditor would obtain focus at startup
even though FCKConfig.StartupFocus is set to false.
- [#393] Fixed the
issue where if an inline tag is at the end of the document, the user would have
no way of escaping from the inline tag if he continues typing at the end of the
document. FCKeditor's behaviors regarding inline tags has been made to be more like
MS Word's:
- If the caret is moved to the end of a hyperlink by the keyboard, then hyperlink
mode is disabled.
- If the caret is moved to the end of other styled inline tags by any key other than
the End key (like bold text or italic text), the original bold/italic/... modes
would continue to be effective.
- If the caret is moved to the end of other styled inline tags by the End key, all
style tag modes (e.g. bold, italic, underline, etc.) would be canceled. This is
not consistent with MS Word, but provides a convenient way for the user to escape
the inline tag at the end of a line.
- [#338] Fixed the
issue where the configuration directive FCKConfig.ForcePasteAsPlainText is ignored
when new contents are pasted into the editor via drag-and drop from outside of the
editor.
- [#1026] Fixed
the issue where the cursor or selection positions are not restored with undo/redo
commands correctly in IE, under some circumstances.
- [#1160] [#1184] Home, End
and Tab keys are working properly for numeric fields in dialogs.
- [#68] The style
system now properly handles Format styles when EnterMode=br.
- [#525] The union
of successive DIVs will work properly now if EnterMode!=div.
- [#1227] The color
commands used an unnecessary temporary variable. Thanks to Matthias Miller
- [#67] [#277] [#427]
[#428] [#965] [#1178]
[#1267] The list
insertion/removal/indent/outdent logic in FCKeditor has been rewritten, such that:
- Text separated by <br> will always be treated as separate items during list
insertion regardless of browser;
- List removal will now always obey the FCKConfig.EnterMode setting;
- List indentation will be XHTML 1.1 compliant - all child elements under an <ol>
or <ul> must be <li> nodes;
- IE editor hacks like <ul type="1"> will no longer appear;
- Excessive <div> nodes are no longer inserted into list items due to alignment
changes.
- [#205] Fixed the
issue where visible <br> tags at the end of paragraphs are incorrectly removed
after switching to and from source mode.

issue where switching to and from source mode in full page mode under IE would add
excessive line breaks to <style> blocks.
- [#121] Fixed the
issue where maximizing FCKeditor inside a frameset would resize FCKeditor to the
whole window's size instead of just the container frame's size.
- [#1093] Fixed
the issue where pressing Enter inside an inline tag would not create a new paragraph
correctly.
- [#1089] Fixed
the issue where pressing Enter inside a <pre> block do not generate visible
line breaks in IE.
- [#332] Hitting
Enter when the caret is at the end of a hyperlink will no longer continue the link
at the new paragraph.
- [#1121] Hitting
Enter with FCKConfig.EnterMode=br will now scroll the document correctly when the
new lines have exceeded the lower boundary of the editor frame.
- [#1063] [#1084] [#1092] Fixed a few Norwegian
language translation errors.
- [#1148] Fixed
the issue where the "Automatic" and "More Colors..." buttons
in the color selection panel are not centered in Safari.

- With Firefox, if a paste execution is blocked by the browser security settings,
the new "Paste" popup is shown to the user to complete the pasting operation.
Fixed Bugs:
- Various fixes to the ColdFusion File Browser connector.
- We are now pointing the download of ieSpell to their pages, instead to a direct
file download from one of their mirrors. This disables the ability of "click and
go" (which can still be achieved by pointing the download to a file in your server),
but removes any troubles with mirrors link changes (and they change it frequently).
- The Word cleanup has been changed to remove "display:none" tags that may come from
Word.

it may be incompatible with some keyboard layouts. So, the CTRL + ALT + S combination
has been changed to CTRL + SHIFT + S.
- [#129] In IE,
it was not possible to paste if "Allow paste operation via script" was disabled
in the browser security settings.

key now behaves correctly on lists with Firefox, when the EnterMode is set to 'br'.
- [#152] Invalid
self-closing tags are now being fixed before loading.

tag will not anymore break the contents loaded in the editor.
- [#211] Some invalid
inputs, like "<p>" where making the caret disappear in Firefox.
- [#99] The <div>

They are also selectable and draggable, in all browsers.
- [#213] Styles
are now preserved when hitting enter at the end of a paragraph.

- [#209] Links and
images URLs will now be correctly preserved with Netscape 7.1.
- [#165] The enter
key now honors the EnterMode settings when outdenting a list item.
- [#190] Toolbars

BUG-1203560] [SF
BUG-1564838] The advance Enter Key Handler
is now being introduced. It gives you complete freedom to configure the editor to
generate <p>, <div> or <br> when the user uses
both the [Enter] and [Shift]+[Enter] keys. The new "EnterMode" and "ShiftEnterMode"
settings can be use to control its behavior. It also guarantees that all browsers
will generate the same output.
- The new and powerful Keyboard Accelerator System is being introduced.
You can now precisely control the commands to execute when some key combinations
are activated by the user. It guarantees that all browsers will have the same behavior
regarding the shortcuts.
It also makes it possible to remove buttons from the toolbar and still invoke their
features by using the keyboard instead.
It also blocks all default "CTRL based shortcuts" imposed by the browsers, so if
you don't want users to underline text, just remove the CTRL+U combination from
the keystrokes table. Take a look at the FCKConfig.Keystrokes setting in the fckconfig.js
file.
- The new "ProtectedTags" configuration option is being introduced.
It will accept a list of tags (separated by a pipe "|"), which will have no effect
during editing, but will still be part of the document DOM. This can be used mainly
for non HTML standard, custom tags.
- Dialog box commands can now open resizable dialogs (by setting oCommand.Resizable
= true).
- Updated support for AFP. Thanks to Soenke Freitag.
- New language file:
- Afrikaans (by Willem Petrus Botha).

- [SF
Patch-1472654] The server side script location for SpellerPages can now be set
in the configuration file, by using the SpellerPagesServerScript setting.
- Attention: All connectors are now pointing by
default to the "/userfiles/" folder instead of "/UserFiles/" (case change). Also,
the inner folders for each type (file, image, flash and media) are all lower-cased
too.
- Attention: The UseBROnCarriageReturn configuration
is not anymore valid. The EnterMode setting can now be used to precisely set the
enter key behavior.

BUG-1508341] Fix for the ColdFusion script file of SpellerPages.
* This version has been partially sponsored by Medical
Media Lab.
Version 2.3.3
New Features and Improvements:
- The project has been relicensed under the terms of the
GPL / LGPL / MPL licenses. This change will remove many licensing compatibility
issues with other open source licenses, making the editor even more "open" than
before.
- Attention: The default directory in the distribution
package is now named "fckeditor" (in lowercase) instead of "FCKeditor". This
change may impact installations on case sensitive OSs, like Linux.
- Attention: The "Universal Keyboard" has been removed
from the package. The license of those files was unclear so they can't be included
alongside the rest of FCKeditor.
Version 2.3.2
New Features and Improvements:
- Users can now decide if the template dialog will replace the entire contents of
the editor or simply place the template in the cursor position. This feature can
be controlled by the "TemplateReplaceAll" and "TemplateReplaceCheckbox" configuration
options.
- [SF
Patch-1237693] A new configuration option (ProcessNumericEntities)
is now available to tell the editor to convert non ASCII chars to their relative
numeric entity references. It is disabled by default.
- The new "AdditionalNumericEntities" setting makes it possible to
define a set of characters to be transformed to their relative numeric entities.
This is useful when you don't want the code to have simple quotes ('), for example.
- The Norwegian language file (no.js) has been duplicated to include the Norwegian
Bokmal (nb.js) in the supported interface languages. Thanks to Martin Kronstad.
- Two new patterns have been added to the Universal Keyboard:
- Persian. Thanks to Pooyan Mahdavi
- Portuguese. Thanks to Bo Brandt.

attribute for the files. Thanks to Pent.
- [SF
BUG-1090851] The new "ToolbarComboPreviewCSS" configuration option has been
created, so it is possible to point the Style and Format toolbar combos to a different
CSS, avoiding conflicts with the editor area CSS.
- [SF
Feature-1421309] [SF
BUG-1489402] It is now possible to configure the Quick Uploder target path
to consider the file type (ex: Image or File) in the target path for uploads.
- The JavaScript integration file has two new things:
- The "CreateHtml()" function in the FCKeditor object, used to retrieve the HTML of
an editor instance, instead of writing it directly to the page (as done by "Create()").
- The global "FCKeditor_IsCompatibleBrowser()" function, which tells if the executing
browser is compatible with FCKeditor. This makes it possible to do any necessary
processing depending on the compatibility, without having to create and editor instance.
Fixed Bugs:
- [SF
BUG-1525242] [SF
BUG-1500050] All event attributes (like onclick or onmouseover) are now
being protected before loading the editor. In this way, we avoid firing those events
during editing (IE issue) and they don't interfere in other specific processors
in the editor.
- Small security fixes to the File Browser connectors.
- [SF
BUG-1546226] Small fix to the ColdFusion CFC integration file.

API command or even when switching back from the source view. Fixed.
- [SF
BUG-1507755] Fixed a conflict between the "DisableObjectResizing" and "ShowBorders"
configuration options over IE.
- Opera 9 tries to "mimic" Gecko in the browser detection system of FCKeditor. As
this browser is not "yet" supported, the editor was broken on it. It has been fixed,
and now a textarea is displayed, as in any other unsupported browser. Support for
Opera is still experimental and can be activated by setting the property "EnableOpera"
to true when creating an instance of the editor with the JavaScript integration
files.
- With Opera 9, the toolbar was jumping on buttons rollover.
- [SF
BUG-1509479] The iframes used in Firefox for all editor panels (dropdown combos,

the editor. In this way, if the editor container element is removed from the DOM
(by DHTML) they are removed together with it.

BUG-1489768] The panels (context menus, toolbar combos and color selectors),

- [SF
BUG-1493173] [SF
BUG-1499708] We now assume that, if a user is in source editing, he/she
wants to control the HTML, so the editor doesn't make changes to it when posting
the form being in source view or when calling the GetXHTML function in the API.
- [SF
BUG-1490610] The FitWindow is now working on elements set with relative position.
- [SF

installations.

Browser.
- [SF
BUG-1503059] The default "BasePath" for FCKeditor in all integration files has

in case sensitive OSs like Linux.

mode with FitWindow.
- Some fixes has been applied to the cell merging in Firefox.

- Extremely Fast Loading! The editor now loads more than 3
times faster than before, with no impact on its advanced features.
- New toolbar system:
- [SF
Feature-1454850] The toolbar will now load much faster. All
images have being merged in a single image file using a unique system available
only with FCKeditor.
- The "Text Color" and "Background Color" commands buttons have
enhancements on the interface.
- Attention: As a completely
new system has being developed. Skins created for versions prior this one will not
work. Skin styles definitions have being merged, added and removed. All skins have
been a little bit reviewed.
- It is possible to detach the toolbar from an editor instance and
share it with other instances. In this way you may have only one toolbar (in the
top of the window, for example, that can be used by many editors (see
sample10.html). This feature is still under development (issues with IE
focus still to be solved).*
- New context menu system:
- It uses the same (fast) loading system as the toolbar.
- Sub-Menus are now available to group features (try the context menu over a table
cell).
- It is now possible to create your own context menu entries by creating plugins.

Feature-1444943] Multiple CSS files can now be used in the
editing area. Just define FCKConfig.EditorAreaCSS as an array of strings (each one
is a path to a different css file). It works also as a simple string, as on prior
versions.
- New language files:
- Bengali / Bangla (by Richard Walledge).
- English (Canadian) (by Kevin Bennett).
- Khmer (by Sengtha Chay).
- The source view is now available in the editing area on Gecko browsers. Previously
a popup was used for it (due to a Firefox bug).
- As some people may prefer the popup way for source editing, a new configuration
option (SourcePopup) has being introduced.
- The IEForceVScroll configuration option has been removed. The editor now automatically
shows the vertical scrollbar when needed (for XHTML doctypes).
- The configuration file doesn't define a default DOCTYPE to be used now.
- It is now possible to easily change the toolbar using the JavaScript API by just
calling <EditorInstance>.ToolbarSet.Load( '<ToolbarName>' ). See _testcases/010.html
for a sample.
- The "OnBlur" and "OnFocus" JavaScript API events are now compatible
with all supported browsers.
- Some few updates in the Lasso connector and uploader.
- The GeckoUseSPAN setting is now set to "false" by default. In this way, the code
produced by the bold, italic and underline commands are the same on all browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
- Important security fixes have been applied to the File Manager, Uploader
and Connectors. Upgrade is highly recommended. Thanks to Alberto Moro,
Baudouin Lamourere and James Bercegay.

New Features and Improvements:
- Let's welcome Wim Lemmens (didgiman). He's our new responsible for the ColdFusion
integration. In this version we are introducing his new files with the following
changes:
- The "Uploader", used for quick uploads, is now available
natively for ColdFusion.
- Small bugs have been corrected in the File Browser connector.
- The samples now work as is, even if you don't install the editor in the "/FCKeditor"
directory.
- And a big welcome also to "Andrew Liu", our responsible for the
Python integration. This version is bringing native support for Python
, including the File Browser connector and Quick Upload.
- The "IsDirty()" and "ResetIsDirty()"
functions have been added to the JavaScript API to check if the editor
content has been changed.*

configuration option has been introduced. It makes it possible to set whenever is
needed to maintain the user session in the File Browser. It is disabled by default,

blockers. If you have custom File Browsers that depends on session information,
remember to activate it.

smileys set has been removed from the package. If you are using it, you must manually
copy it to newer installations and upgrades.

were also some licensing issues with it. Its web site can still be found at
http://mcpuk.net/fbxp/.
