elRTE

We haven't tried it yet, but I guess there should be problems. Try to look for errors using FireBug

why "but I guess there should be problems" ?

There have been problems with elRTE with jquery ui tabs. The problems it that ui-dialog is not the same as browser window. elRTE heavily replies on browser and ui-dialog is limited and don't have all needed events functions that elRTE requires.

There was discussion about this on Russian forum http://elrte.org/redmine/boards/3/topics/186, use google translator and look for the code.

I haven't dig in this problem so I can only give some directions where to search for solution.

The most common problem about elRTE in dialog is that you try to create elRTE instance before your dialog is opened and before your elRTE node exists in DOM tree as a result elRTE cannot init itself, here is quick example how it should be done:

 1 $('#dialog').click(function() { // open dialog on click
 2     var dialog = $('<div>').dialog({
 3         title : 'Editor in dialog',
 4         width : 600
 5     });
 6     // create element for elRTE
 7     var rteInDialog = $('<div>Content for editor in dialog</div>');
 8     // put element inside dialog
 9     dialog.append(rteInDialog);
10     // create elRTE on element
11     rteInDialog.elrte(opts);
12 });

Hi,

Got the same problem, but i m using an ajax call to load my form in the dialog. the elrte instance is in the page form, when the DOM is ready.
Any solutions ?

Thanks

elRTE instance must be created after form set visible

ahhhhh

what i did :
onclick button : creating dialog, loading the form, open the dialog, instance the elrte.
work fine !

Thanks for your help !
