Hopefully some one has an answer and work around for this.

 

My CSS single quotes are being stripped when going between "HTML" and "Normal" views. for example....

this => style="background: url('my/image/path');"

gets replace by

this => style="background: url(my/image/path);"

 

As well, this occurs if I try to load a template that contains such markup... thus breaking it.

 

The problem is, in firefox (all versions of firefox), this breaks the display, since firefox will then "clean up" the code by removing it and replacing it with it's own codes such as "-moz" tags.

 

Or is there anyway to prevent firefox from altering/removing code?

 

Thanks;

Drew,

 

This is Internet Explorer behaviour. We still can't find an elegant workaround.

Actually, it's a Firefox bahaviour as well. All 3 versions of Firefox (1,2,3). It would be nice to have it resolved, however in the meantime, I've simply created a post "clean-up" if you will via regular expressions.

 

The thing is, if you were to "paste" a layout into it, no prob. However, the minute you view the "source" or submit the editing, it will then strip them.

 

Possible Idea??....

why not simply run a javascript regular expression if flopping between "normal & "html" modes and also upon submit?

In fact, here's a quick script I wrote that I also implemented on my version for my site....

 

/*=====CODE SNIPPET SAMPLE=============*/

 

var xpress=/url\(([a-zA-Z0-9:\/\.\?\&\=]+)\)/g;
value=value.replace(xpress,"url('$1')");

 

/*=================================*/

 

This basically will do a scan of the whole document for anything that matches the 'xpress' (regular express) and will do a global replace of the string you feed it. In this case, the var of 'value'. This script will add those missing 'single' quotes back into the url() css attribute.... cross-browser.
