I'm having a bit of a problem with CE, i have breakmode as paragraph but when i press enter on the Normal mode it is adding a paragraph with a space inside and for a reason unknown to me my browser IE 6 is rendering a  Â  character, this also appens with special symbols like the registered ®

 

does anyone experienced this problem before?

 

any suggestions?

pnmcosta,

 

This problem had something to do with wrong encodings which makes   coming out as Â.

 

Is the site online so can you provide its URL? 

 

I'm sorry but i can't provide any online link to it because it is still in development,

 

i can just tell you that what i'm doing is direct edition on the page, for example the page default.aspx, i open the editable region pass it to the CE, change and then save the file with the new changes..

 

is it possible to force the paragraph to be without space, or do u reckon it is better to change browser or page settings?

 

what i eventually could do is send u a zip file with an output and the Web Custom Control that i created to use CE.

 

 

Speak Soon,

 

Please create a simple example  and post the code here.

Fore Code :

 

<table cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%" align="center">
 <tr>
  <td><h5><font color="#aaaaaa">Currently editing page
     <asp:Literal ID="pageEditing" Runat="server"></asp:Literal></font></h5>
  </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
  <td align="center"><CE:EDITOR id="Editor1" runat="server" EnableFancyDropDownMenu="true"
    ShowLogo="False" ShowBottomBar="True" Width="780px" ></CE:EDITOR></td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
  <td align="center" class="content"><BR>
   <asp:LinkButton id="lnkSave" runat="server">Save Changes</asp:LinkButton>&nbsp;¦&nbsp;
   <asp:LinkButton id="lnkClose" runat="server">Close Window</asp:LinkButton>
   <asp:label id="txtPage" runat="server" Visible="False"></asp:label>
   <asp:label id="txtPagePath" runat="server" Visible="False"></asp:label></td>
 </tr>
</table>

What i then do is load the control setting the property  editpage to the absolute path of the page.

it will open the code inside the tags <!--EDITABLE--><!--ENDEDITABLE--> to edit.

 

Thats it..

 

whenever i save it, it shows the A's when it should be paragraphs.

 

Regards,

 

At least i could find a solution to one of the problems, i'm using <div> on pressing return.

 

but i still have the problem with special symbols like ® on rendering the page is adding  before the symbol

 

Could someone please help me on this, i can't find a solution to this problem.

 

 

Please...

 

i've noticed that when returning the code from the editor the special symbols come like a symbol instead of the HTML code representing them i.e. (&amp;) what i've done is replace the symbol by it's HTML code.

 

Something you might think usefull to had on the next version.
