Description

« Hide

The HTML editor, when pressing the "<>" (HTML mode) button, shows HTML contents without the first letter of each line. Switching abck to Editor mode doesn't cause data loss, but it's really annoying and can cause wrong manual tags to be inserted.

Example attached. Not sure if this is a CSS thing or what.

Ciao

I'm experiencing it in 1.8.2, only in IE6, on Windows XP Pro, using a modified version of the 'Serenity' theme. Any ideas how to resolve this?

The bug seems to be that the scrollbar always shows on IE, and that the iframe width calculations don't change when the mode changes from wysiwyg to textmode. No idea how to fix that without spending (a lot of) time hacking in htmlarea css sheet. Imho, this time would be better spent upgrading to a newer (and still supported) editor.

To fix this bug on IE 6, just add this line

textarea.style.marginLeft = "0px";

in this part of the htmlarea.php file: (close to the line 828, with moodle 1.9.2)

// the editor including the toolbar now have the same size as the
// original textarea.. which means that we need to reduce that a bit.
textarea.style.marginLeft = "0px";
textarea.style.width = iframe.style.width;
textarea.style.height = iframe.style.height;
