Hello there,

 

We have published documents from IntraNote to DW. These documents has now been converted to "standard" Dynamicweb pages. When editing one of these pages, contents disappear on save.

 

We have been told that this is because of invalid HTML in the documents / pages, which might be correct.

 

This is though a rather large problem because the customer has around 1900 of these pages.

 

Is it possible to configure the editor to avoid this validation? i suppose the HTML is validated against a scheme?

 

Kind regards

Morten Pedersen

Hi Morten

It can not be disabled as Dynamicweb is right now - the editor handles it and we do not control the editor because it is a bought component. What browser is used for editing? And do you by any chance have a piece of HTML that Dynamicweb would delete pieces from?

Hi there,

Hi Morten

It is broken HTML and I'm afraid I cant do anything about it...

If you look at the content its really weird:

The editor does not have a configuration to leave this alone. It uses the dom which brakes on invalid html.

A wild shot woulde be to add this line  to configuration:

FCKConfig.ProtectedTags = 'TABLE|CUSTOM' ;

Can be found in /Admin/Editor/fckconfig.js

HI again,

It seems like it works with the "Standard" editor, but that one has a limit of how much data it can handle. Are there any possibilities of expanding that limit?

Thanks in advance.

Dont think so - the limit is 100000 bytes which is something the component has as problem.

Thanks.

Have you had experiences implementing another editor, or do you know if some other partner has implemented one ?

Kind regards

Hi Morten

You cannot implement your own editor - nor do I think it would help you. Broken HTML is destined to give you problems. Better write some code that would find or fix the broken HTML.
