I guess I just need to start not quote and reply with abstract things, this editor is pure grbage. |

Everyone happy again? :-BROKE I'm pretty convinced that no matter what changes I make to the forum, people are not going to be happy. That only cost me a decent lunch to try. --- End quote --- Just do what people ask: have a fix for inlining images. Maybe setup an image hosting service on your own server (only accessible for EEVblog members). Nobody asked to 'fix' the editor. >:D :-DD |

The bar with formatting options and emoticons disappears too, as I showed. --- Quote from: RoGeorge on December 06, 2022, 11:57:50 am ---Now, after 2 years, weird things are still there, random example, when I press enter to add an empty line, a new line is created, but the text in the edit does not scroll up, so to see the empty line I have to use the mouse wheel. Back then there were many bugs. Many are are still present. --- End quote --- Just noticed another annoying thing. It keep resizing the text box as lines are added or removed. It also seems to force some maximum limit; I think that previously I could expand this box manually as far as I wanted to. edit Yes, blocking JQuery removes this limitation. I can make it several screens long. --- Quote from: RoGeorge on December 06, 2022, 11:57:50 am --- --- Quote from: magic on December 06, 2022, 08:29:50 am ---Block malwarescript from code.jquery.com and it's almost back to normal.

Blocking JQuery is likely a very gross method, akin to anesthetic via giant mallet. It's just a library of shortcut functions, it's nothing malicious in and of itself. No idea what else might be using it. Interestingly, I don't see it used on viewing, and I don't recall whether it was used on the original post page. It may very well be key to the addon's functionality, but keep in mind that won't always be the case. It definitely sounds like, whoever wrote this one, wasn't aware of a number of use-cases, like shortcuts. Surely it is supported and a bug report can be made and addressed promptly? On the note of failing shortcuts, I've only seen one that breaks my flow: TI's E2E board, the textbox breaks Back To Backspace. So I have to type my comments in Notepad and paste them in... Well, I can imagine the cluster if one has more shortcuts configured. Noteworthy that this appears to be implemented by an editable IFRAME (rich), versus a regular old TEXTAREA (plain). Could also be the plugin needs to mask off editable elements, not just text and input. Tim |

If it does, it may include its own copy on the forum server instead of fetching it from jquery.com. Many sites take the second option, though. If that ever goes down, it will be a disaster like the sinking of ImageShack :P |
