Events
The first thing that comes to mind are events, such as "onclick", "onmousedown", "onmouseout", "onmouseover", etcetera.
When I try to do say....... An <img> element with an onclick parameter, when I close the html editor, and open it again, the onclick has disappeared, leaving only the <img>.
For Example:
I paste in
<img class="imgx" onclick="ace()" src="http://marsxplr.com/_upl/flyclubozc-orig.jpg" />
Then I close the html editor, and open it again, and bam, what was once
<img class="imgx" onclick="ace()" src="http://marsxplr.com/_upl/flyclubozc-orig.jpg" />
is now
<img class="imgx" src="http://marsxplr.com/_upl/flyclubozc-orig.jpg" />"
Custom Parameters
This also happens with custom parameters - lets say you want to add a star rater from js - kit:
Conventionally you would put in
<div class="js-kit-rating" title="Rated item" permalink=""></div><script src="http://js-kit.com/ratings.js"></script>
However lets say you want to make it score system - something that jsut shows the numbers of yays and nays, not a 1 through 5 average vote.
You would put in:
<div view="score" class="js-kit-rating" title="Rated item" permalink=""></div><script src="http://js-kit.com/ratings.js"></script>
However the view="score" would end up disappearing, leaving you with a star rater.
Dropdowns
One of my favorites (even though I hate it) is the drop down menu glitch!
The <option> element is completely unknown in this one!
Lets say you enter............
<select>
<option>Volvo</option>
<option>Saab</option>
<option>Mercedes</option>
<option>Audi</option>
</select>
Remarkably, and sadly, that becomes:
<div>
Volvo
Saab
Mercedes
Audi</div>
The Diagnostic
Now I have shown you about three examples (one... .four.... ten..... elevendy...... three) Yes I know I made up a number in there :P
I have many more examples, such as inputs of all manner, but I think I have made my point.
I think I have figured out what is causing all of this:
I know for a fact that plexpedia it's self is compatible with such things, I see them all the time in places such as the hidden, active, resolved drop downs, or the "choose file" buttons, even the thing I am typing into right now!
No... I think the problem is in the wysiwyg editor.
You see I think that the html editor in the wysiwyg has a sort of.... Spell checker, it deletes what is not on it's list. I think that it might be nice to be able to turn that spell checker off, and have it keep what ever I type. I think that a checkbox would do nicely - like the "word wrap: checkbox....
Thank you!
The end
:P
P.S. Please excuse my sad attempts at humor
