Text Editor Widget

[JazzParticipant]

Major update today. I decided to build in a cool little image browser. The simple image dialog is still available, but if you supply the imageBrowser parameter with a dataAdapter object, you can use the built-in browser.

Still needs some work, but I wanted to show it off. Check it out: http://www.hazaarmvc.com/site/test

Just click in the text somewhere and insert an image. A window will pop up with a bunch of images to choose from that are loaded via the dataAdapter.

No support for folders or uploads yet, but that’s coming. I also have no idea how it will go in IE just yet.

Almost done! Notable changes since last update:

* jqxEditor is now theme happy!
* Finished the image browser.
* Changed the color picker tool buttons to something a lot neater/fancier (removed the hex display).
* Added a modechange event for when the edit mode changes. This has allowed me to send a server request to ‘tidy’ the HTML before displaying it.
* Bit of code clean up

All that’s left, really, is some IE fix-ups, testing and then writing up some documentation for it and adding a couple more demos. Stay tuned.

Well…

I’m done.

Peter, if you want to check out the widget and make sure it’s working for you as well, that would be great. Demo page is now at http://www.hazaarmvc.com/test (there’s a redirect on the old URL anyway).

I have tested in IE7/8/9/10, Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari and all seem to be working consistently.

I’ve also knocked up some demos and I’ve just finished putting together an API page right now. It gives a general idea of what parameters, methods and events are available.

I’m not sure how to handle the logistics of the widget from here though. Meaning whether I host and maintain or you integrate it into the main library. Happy to discuss.

Hi,

You did a great job with that Editor! However, as it is not developed by the jQWidgets Team, we will most probably not be able to integrate it. We will definitely develop our own HTML Text Editor in a future version, too. As your editor represents UI which uses our widgets in the Toolbar and is built with the jQWidgets Framework, you can use it only in your own projects and should not distribute our files with it. For further discussion, please write to info@jqwidgets.com.

Best Regards,

Hello friends … I need help …
I’m using jqxEditor, and I have no possibility to include the button to justify text. While I can do with CSS, I need to do when I select a paragraph, word, as is done with the alignment Left, Center and Right.

Thank you very much for your help.

regards

Hi cristian_creo,

Unfortunately, jqxEditor does not have such capability. In addition, our jqxEditor does not have anything common with the discussion in this help topic.
