tinymce problems

[drtanz]

hi i am using fckeditor in my website, however the problem is that when i would like to edit the content and i try to load the contents of the field into fckeditor i get html code instead of the formatted article. any help about this? thanks

A 20 second search and I stumbled across this: http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Functions

tinyMCE.setContent( html ) is what you're looking for.

Actually i made a mistake the error ergards fckeditor and not tinymce, was my oversight as im using tinymce on another project.

take a look at the insertHTML() method.

right now i have this code

<?php 
	$oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('articletext');
	$oFCKeditor->BasePath = 'FCKeditor/';
	$oFCKeditor->Value = $articletext;	
	$oFCKeditor->Width  = '100%' ;
	$oFCKeditor->Height = '300' ;
	$oFCKeditor->Create();
?>

I am unsure where to put that javascript, I thought maybe there was some parameter i could pass that would signal to the object to output html

[cgraz]

ahh i thought you were doing this in the JS API, not PHP. I've never worked with the editor's API, but I would try changing the value line to this

$oFCKeditor->Value = '<h1>This is my HTML</h1>';

Does this treat that as text, or HTML?

[drtanz]

yeah that is treated as html, however the variable name is displayed only instead of fetching the field contents from the database.

So where is $articletext being set? Do you have any code to pull data from the database, and set the value of $articletext?
