Thanks Adam – of course, the reason we’re using ActivEdit in the first place is to support the client who uses Safari, so we’ll see what we can find out and when we do, we’ll definitely let you know!

Thanks

Truman,

 

We haven't yet tried ActivEdit 5.0 with Plum, but since the only changes between 4.0 and 5.0 seem to be native support for Firefox and Safari, it's a good bet that there's been a fundamental change in the way they're rendering the control.

 

We don't have any immediate plans to update Plum to support versions of WYSIWYG editors other than the versions it already supports, so you'll either have to downgrade to an earlier version of ActivEdit or experiment with the cf_DisplayActivEdit Plum custom tag.

 

Take a look in your browser at the HTML source generated by the Plum form, save it to disk as an .htm file, and tweak it until you find out what's missing.

 

Let us know what you find.

 

Respectfully,

Oh yeah – this seems to be IE specific.  Works in Firefox…

Thanks again

Subject: [plum] Using ActivEdit 5.0?

 

Hola!  Having been lurking on this list and dinking with Plum for some time, our team is now actually using it for a relatively small project in the hopes of relying on it more in the future.  First off, major kudos to the Plum team – Adam and David, as well as everyone in the community for the product – THANKS and WELL DONE (and yes, this will be followed shortly by some $$ J

 

I’m bouncing around on a few other issues, but one that’s got me stumped so far is using ActivEdit 5.0 as the WYSIWYG editor – it renders fine and when you put in data and save it, it’s saved to the DB just fine.  However:

 

When bringing up an EDIT form (be it a PlumContentItem or other form), data from the existing record is not displayed within the ActivEdit control – it just appears blank.  Looking at the source, there’s a textarea hidden through CSS, that does show that the default values should be there, however they’re not rendering in the control.  Anyone have any experience with this?

 

Secondly, perhaps related (‘cuz I do think it’s got something to do with the DOM somewhere…) is that the “quickformat” list isn’t being populated with anything – no styles.

 

When I use the control outside of a Plum form (ContentItem or other) it works just fine…

 

Thanks again, and I look forward to being a more active participant on this list and with Plum in general!

Best,

Truman
