Forum OpenACS Q&A: xinha - displaying optional params

Posted by Avni Khatri on 01/23/07 08:36 AM

Hi -

I am running OACS 5.2.3 + oracle 9i on macosx, firefox.
Trying to get some of the xinha buttons to not appear.

From the docs, it looks like this should work:

ad_form -name "test123" -method post -form {

    {body:richtext(richtext) {label "Body: "} {{options {editor xinha plugins {CharacterMap FullScreen ListType TableOperations}

        javascript {

            xinha_config.toolbar = [['popupeditor', 'bold','italic','createlink','insertimage','separator'],['killword','removeformat'] ];}}}}

        {html {rows 12 cols 50 wrap soft}}

    }

}

But all the options are displayed.
I haven't tested on any other browsers, OSes yet.

Has anyone done this?
Thanks.

You an pass in plugins as an option to the xinha widget.

like this:

{text:richtext(richtext),nospell,optional

	    {label Content}

	    {options {editor xinha plugins {

	      GetHtml CharacterMap ContextMenu FullScreen

	      ListType TableOperations EditTag LangMarks Abbreviation OacsFs

	    } height 350px}}

	    {html {rows 15 cols 50 style {width: 100%}}}}

I think that is what I am doing? Look at my example above.

1. as far as the plugins go, let's say I remove OacsFS. The image upload button still shows up?

2. According to here: http://openacs.org/api-doc/proc-view?proc=template%3a%3awidget%3a%3arichtext

I should be able to pass in a "javascript" option and customize even further?
But nothing changes when I remove / add options from the toolbar?

I checked the richtext proc and it looks like there is code to handle the options, but it doesn't seem to called?? (might be wrong about this)

Thanks,
Avni
