I have the editor set to use DIV tags as the break element.

 

If I am typing, this works fine. Each time I press enter a new div is created. However, if you create a large paragraph and try to break it up into two aragraphs, it does not insert a new DIV, instead it uses BR tags. So far as I can tell, once you have a paragraph entered, there is no simple way to break it down into two or more paragraphs.

Creating paragraphs is fine, but I need to give my users the ability to edit them as well. If I have the control set to use DIV tags, it should only use Div tags, and it should only use a BR tag if I press shift+enter. Right?

 

Is this a known bug and if so is there a planned relase for it to be fixed?

This is not a bug. It's design intention.

Let me explain the break elment isssue.

For example, you set your breakelement to DIV.

 

<div>hello world</div>pess enter here

 

You should get the following result:

 
<div>hello world</div>

<div>&#160;</div>

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Scenario 2:

 

<div>hello pess enter here world</div>

 

You should get the following result:

 
<div>hello <br/> world</div>

---

In the Scenario 1, Cute Editor detects you just finish eding a block and want to start a new block (paragraph). So it will automatically insert the block element <div> or <p>.

In the Scenario 2, Cute Editor detects you are editing the content in the same block (paragraph).

So it will use the break element to force a break in the current line of text.


Hope it helps.

Let me know if you have any further questions about this.

But if I have a long paragraph and I want to break it up into multiple paragraphs how can I do this?

 

Here is the scenario:

The user wants to paste in some text from a word editor or something. We have it set to strip and just paste as plain text. So then, then want to do the formatting within the editor, like create paragraphs, headings that are centered etc. With the textbox functioning the way ti currently does, the whole body of text that they paste in initially is one single DIV, so any editing they do just creates breaks within that div. So if they have a heading in there that they want to center, they can't because if they select just the line they want centered and click the center button, it just centers the whole body of text that they pasted in.

If I place the cursor in the middle of a div tag and press enter, and my break function is set to DIV shouldn't it close the current div I am in, and insert a new opening div tag where my cursor is? If I wanted a BR tag I could press Shift+Enter right?

Thanks,

Can you please comment on this?

Cutesoft no likey when we make constuctive criticism about their control. They give you the silent treatment!

I have to remove the post which contains a link to another new editor.

Because we are investigating the editor referenced by that client, there are some copyright issues.

 

Basically the author of that editor steals both code and content from us.

 

Do you mean all your content are in a big DIV?

If all your content are in a big DIV and you place the cursor in the middle of a div tag and press enter, CuteEditor will automatically insert a BR tag.

If yout to insert the block level break, you can use the  pragrapgh button.

 

Hope it helps.

 

Keep me posted.
