HELP: I Need WYSIWYG INTEGRATED INTO A CMS by cyan2008(m): 1:03pm On Jan 26, 2016
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]can someone help with this.

I want to integrate an html text editor (WYSIWYG) into my database
such that once i insert/edit it and echo it out on a page,
the format (paragraphs, indentation, headings, etc) is retained. Just like you have in most CMS framework.

i have been able to insert into the database using Tinymce, but when i display record from the database, it looses the format and renders the text string as one lenghty record.

I used css to format the output page, but nothing seems to be working.

Any Idea will be appreciate.

Thanks

I use TinyMCE and it works just fine. Maybe you're encoding the html output (as you should for XSS attacks)

Thanks so much for the reply.
What i did was to submited the formatted text in mysql database,
create Master page which displays a link such that when someone
clicks the link, the entire record is printed in the Detail page.

Database ------> Master Page.php(contains links to be clicked) ------->Detail page.php (displays links to be clicked).


It put relevant css/style in Detail page.php so that it formats the text as it is echoed on the page. It has not worked yet.

Any more practical help is much appreciated. Thanks.

A code snippet would do. Use pastebin

Regardless, view the row in phpmyadmin and see if the full html is saved in the database. That would help you in debugging (to know if your problem is stripping tags before save or stripping tags before display

Thanks, i would check that up to see if it works. However thanks for your helpfulness.

You mentioned pastebin.I have gone there to see what it is all about, but i look confused since i have not used the site before,
how do i find my way in this regard? which link solves my problem?

Best regards

Since i cannot see any code, i cannot start speaking at random.
@op, submit a copy of the code used to insert record into the database and a snippet for retrieving it.
I will assume the following:
1. That you are using a field such as text, longtext or something bigger as the field to save the html into the database (and not varchar)
2. That you are aware that tinymce and the other wysiwyg editors do not 'really allow' (means you will invariably run into problem) internal stylesheets like that no matter the config you follow (and believe me when i tell you that i know all the possible configs in that direction).
3. That you know that tinymce can however allow custom class-name attributes in codeview for the elements.
4. That tinymce allows you to use a single stylesheet for the editor contents where you can define the classes used.
Phew, i will rest for now.

ok now. what you need to create a files on php, CSS. JavaScript.
I will suggest. you do something like this..
<head> < script> function allowDrop(ev) { ev.preventDefault(); } function drag(ev) { ev.dataTransfer.setData ("text", ev.target.id); } function drop(ev) { ev.preventDefault(); var data = ev.dataTransfer.getData ("text"wink; ev.target.appendChild (document.getElementById (data)); } < /script > < /head > < body > < div id= "div1" ondrop= "drop(event)" ondragover= "allowDrop (event)" >< /div > < img id= "drag1" src= "img_logo.gif" draggable= "true" ondragstart= "drag(event)" width= "336" height= "69" > < /body > < /html >
