Re: [Deborah] pasting Word content into WYSWYG editor w/Firefox

Hi Deborah,

That's strange. Are you able to re-create that issue every time? Meaning, if you paste from word into the "Paste from Word" dialog and then click the "HTML" button it shows the Word meta tags? Or is it only when you save?

Which version of Word do you have? What we could try doing is upgrading the tinymce wysiwyg editor. A newer version might fix the problem.

Can you see if you can reproduce it with this demo?

Let me know what happens.

Hi, Dave.

Thanks to your reply, I was able to determine the cause. It was entirely my fault [blush]...

I had edited the wysywig.php file in TinyMCE, removing the buttons that I did not want to have visible in the editor. It seems I removed the "pastetext" and "pasteword" buttons. I have added them back and the records are now posting correctly.

Sorry for the false alarm! And thanks for pointing me to the TinyMCE demo. That was very helpful.

Deborah
