When I specify the value of EditorWysiwygModeCss in the Server Tag 
        <CE:Editor ... EditorWysiwygModeCss="client.css" .../>
Everything works as expected.  The classes are listed in the drop-down menu of classes and the text renders correctly in Normal view.

But when I use server-side code instead (in the Page_Load subroutine), 
        Editor1.EditorWysiwygModeCss = getSiteCss()
the page renders correctly in the editor, but the classes are not listed in the drop-down menu.  The menu is empty.

I want to control the classes in the dropdown under software control, so I need to use the second form.  I would rather not write additional code to build up the drop-down menu under program control.

Is the difference in behavior depending on the context of the css specification a bug you will fix soon?  Do you have another suggestion?

 

Thanks

Are you sure the function getSiteCss() return the correct result?

Can you change it from:
 

Editor1.EditorWysiwygModeCss = getSiteCss()

to:

Editor1.EditorWysiwygModeCss = "client.css"

Keep me posted.

By the way, please check your PM. I've sent a message to you.

 

 

First: That's a fine question (which I already investigated).

Second: Yes I'm sure because, as I said, the page renders correctly (on the Mac) showing that the css is in use.

Third: I tried it your way with a string constant as suggested just to be sure, and I got the same disappointing results.

 
FYI, I also set the AutoParseClasses to true before setting EditorWysiwygModeCss, just in case the order made a difference.  The AutoParseClasses was already set in the HTML tag.

Editor1.AutoParseClasses = "True"
Editor1.EditorWysiwygModeCss = "rjSite.css"

Thanks for your help.

Stop the presses.  I found a work-around.

Additional information:  If I specify a value for EditorWysiwygModeCss in the HTML tag, the Class menu is built from it, and if in addition, I specify a different file for EditorWysiwygModeCss in the Page_Load code, that is the style sheet that is used for the display. 

 

This suggests the idea that the drop-down menu is build before the Page_Load code is executed.  Perhaps the solution for me is to specify EditorWysiwygModeCss in an even that occurs before Page_Load...

 

IT WORKS.  You might want to either fix this or document it, but my application works as expected if I put the editor setting in the Page_Init handler, which runs before Page_Load.

 
        Sub Page_Init

            Editor1.EditorWysiwygModeCss = "rjSite.css"

        End Sub
