Hi,

 

I am trying to add a custom button that will display a dialog allowing the user to enter the title attribute for the <abbr> tag.  I can add the button and get the custom dialog to display, however, the following javascript code in the custom dialog will not insert the <abbr> tags into the editor:

var editor = window.dialogArguments;
var doc = editor.GetDocument();
var sel = doc.selection;
if(sel != null)
{
    var range = sel.createRange();
    if(range != null)
    {
        var html = "<abbr title='" + Title.value + "'>" + range.text + "</abbr>";
        range.pasteHTML(html);
    }
}

However, if I insert <b> tags instead, it works fine.

Is this an issue with the CuteSoft editor or the MSHTML control?  Is there another way to achieve the same thing?

I look forward to your reply.
Kind Regards

Andy

 

 

Answering my own question, the problem appears to be because IE does not support the <abbr> tag.  I have no problem inserting <acronym> tags using the above code.
