Project description
Space for extensions and additional plugins for dijit.Editor. The project
currently contains the following plugins:
dojox.editor.plugins.TablePlugins:
Status: Experimental.
The Table Plugins provide a mechanism for editing tables withing the
dijit.Editor. This plugin is experimental and does not work correctly
in all dojo supported browsers.
dojox.editor.plugins.UploadImage:
Status: Experimental.
The UploadImage plugin makes use of the dojox upload widgets to provide
a mechanism to upload images to your server for use in the editor.
dojox.editor.plugins.PrettyPrint:
Status: Supported (stable).
The PrettyPrint plugin provides a mechanism by which the output from
editor.getValue()/editor.attr("value") is nicely formatted. Optional
format parameters are how many spaces to indent by (default is tab),
the maximum text line length (not including indent), and what
characters in text strings should be encoded to their &<enc>;
representation.
dojox.editor.plugins.PageBreak:
Status: Supported (stable).
A simple plugin that allows you to insert 'page breaks' into the doc
being edited. These page break styles will then cause the document
to break to another page when printed.
dojox.editor.plugins.ShowBlockNodes:
Status: Supported (stable).
A simple plugin that allows you to toggle on and off a CSS 'view' of
how the page is laid out in terms of the block nodes used for its
formatting.
dojox.editor.plugins.Save:
Status: Supported (beta).
A simple plugin that allows you to POST the content of the editor back
to a URL.
dojox.editor.plugins.Preview:
Status: Supported (beta).
A simple plugin that allows you to display the content of the editor
in a new window and apply a set of styles to it so you can see how
content will look with various styles applied. It is likely this
plugin will still evolve a bit.
dojox.editor.plugins.ToolbarLineBreak:
Status: Supported (stable).
An extremely simple plugin that allows you to 'linebreak' the dijit toolbar so that really long
toolbars for editor (lots of plugins enabled), can be broken up into multiple rows.
dojox.editor.plugins.InsertEntity:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that enables the ability to insert HTML/XML entity characters
into a page. These are often called 'symbols'. The set it provides are the
basic latin (8859) set and a portion of greek symbols common to mathematics.
It has been marked experimental as it is likely this plugin will evolve a bit.
dojox.editor.plugins.NormalizeIndentOutdent:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that normalizes the behavior of indent/outdent to use margin styles instead
of <blockquote> tags. Also fixes indent/outdent of lists to work properly. This is new
and has been tested, but not extensively. Therefore it is currently classed as experimental.
dojox.editor.plugins.Breadcrumb:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that adds a breadcrumb toolbar to the bottom of the editor. Useful for seeing
where you aren and what operations you can perform. This is new and has been tested, but not
extensively. Therefore it is currently classed as experimental.
dojox.editor.plugins.FindReplace:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that adds a togglable Find/Replace toolbar to the editor. Useful for searching
and replacing text strings in the editor content. Only works on FF, IE, and WebKit. No Opera
support. This is new and has been tested, but not extensively. Therefore it is currently
classed as experimental.
dojox.editor.plugins.CollapsibleToolbar:
Status: Supported (Stable).
A plugin that modified the header node of the editor so that it is 'collapsible'. Meaning that
it can be closed (reduced), and reopened. Useful for increasing editor real-estate.
dojox.editor.plugins.Blockquote:
Status: Supported (Stable).
A plugin that puts a button on the toolbar that allows users to select text for a semantic
'blockquote' tag-wrap action. It toggles on and off during state changes to determine if
the current section is contained within a blockquote.
dojox.editor.plugins.PasteFromWord:
Status: Beta (unsupported).
A plugin that puts a button that opens a dialog to paste in content from Word and similar
programs like wordpad. It will then filter out extraneous and bad html from the content
before injecting it into the RTE. Experimental as the filter list may not be complete yet.
Feedback is welcome and appreciated. Filters will be updated based on it.
dojox.editor.plugins.InsertAnchor:
Status: Stable (supported).
A plugin that allows anchor points to be inserted into the document being edited.
The anchors are styled in the doc to make them easily visible/editable in the document.
dojox.editor.plugins.TextColor:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that makes use of the dojox.widget.ColorPicker widget in lieu of the
dijit.ColorPalette.
dojox.editor.plugins.NormalizeStyle:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that tries to normalize the output from the editor as either CSS styled or semantic (<b>, <i>, etc)
style.
dojox.editor.plugins.StatusBar:
Status: Experimental (unsupported).
A plugin that adds a status bar and an optional resize handle to the footer of the editor.
dojox.editor.plugins.LocalImage
Status: Beta
A plugin that adds local image upload and edit capability to the editor.
dojox.editor.plugins.AutoUrlLink
Status: Experimental (Unsupported)
A plugin that adds auto url link creation capability as a headless plugin to the editor
dojox.editor.plugins.ResizeColumnPlugin
Status: Experimental (Unsupported)
A plugin that adds column resize to the editor table plugins.
dojox.editor.plugins.AutoSave
Status: Experimental (Unsupported)
