Editor stripping !Doctype after save

Reply Quote

Hi,

If I save a document (to a database), the editor strips out the

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> tag.

Any ideas on how to stop this?

Thank you.

The4bs,

Please set the Editor.EditCompleteDocument Property to true.

Editor.EditCompleteDocument Property

Specify whether a complete HTML document is being edited.

Remarks

If false, the editor will only process content inside the page body i.e. all content inside of the <body>...</body> tags of a page. If true, the editor will process content outside the page body and preserve header tags (e.g. <head>...</head>, <title>...</title>, etc.).

Thank you for the reply.

However, this does not seem to work.

When I save the contents of the editor to the database the !Doctype tag remains in the editor HTML window.

But if I close the editor after saving and open it again - getting the saved html from the database - the !Doctype tag is no longer there.

If I look in the database after saving, I notice that the !Doctype tag has not been saved in the database.

As you will appreciate, this is a major problem in the creation of web pages using the editor.

the4bs,

Just create a label control and use it to write the string after extrcting content from the editor.

Then check !Doctype tag.

You can use the following example to test as well:

The source code of this example is included in the download package.
