I'm wondering if it's possible to configure CuteEditor to use a <div> tag instead of a <span> tag when selecting a custom CssClass.

 

For example, I created a custom class, and when the text is selected to use that class from the drop down, the following code is generated <span class="className">Text</span>

 

I need this to be <div class="className">Text</div>

 

Is it possible to change this? The reason is, the users are pasting text from Word, and it's pasting <span> tags with styles, and I'm using RegEx to strip the span tags, but allowing them to set classes on text, but my RegEx strips the <span> tags, thus, stripping the classes set by the user.

 

Any help is appreciated.

No, it's not possible.

 

Because Div is a block level tag. If we use it as inline tag, the structure of the page/content will be changed.

 

Please compare the following HTML code:

 

Original code:

 

Hello World

 

Span:

 

He<span class="class1">ll</span>o Wo<span class="class2">r</span>l<span class="class3">d</span></p>

 

Div:

 

He<div class="class1">ll</div>o Wo<div class="class2">r</div>l<div class="class3">d</div></p>

 

With Div tag,  the structure of the above code is totally changed.

 

Hope it helps.
