Link problem in SPAW editor

spirelli · Post by **spirelli** » Sat 12. Mar 2005, 09:06

I ahve a big problem with SPAW in DEV 1.2.1. Has anyone else experienced this?

Whenever I open a WYSIWYG content part SPAW adds a string to the URLs in the <A> tags. So when the content part is saved the links are all wrong.
For example: <A href="sample.phtml"> becomes <A href="include/inc_ext/spaw/sample.phtml">.

THis is very annoying. I really like SPAW for its looks and how easy I can customise it. But of cause I cannot expect the user to correct all links everytime he opens a WYSIWYG content part.

Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
Thanks.

Hi

I'm not shure - but maybe you take a look to the spaw_control.config.php in

Code: Select all

\include\inc_ext\spaw\config

here

Code: Select all

$spaw_dir         = '/'.$phpwcms["root"].'include/inc_ext/spaw/';	
$spaw_base_url 	= $phpwcms["site"].$phpwcms["root"];
$spaw_root        = PHPWCMS_ROOT.'/include/inc_ext/spaw/';

I'm have switched to FCKeditor - and since yesterday to Ver 2.0rc3 - it makes more XHTML-like Code

These are exactly my settings. Just can't fugure out what's going on.

Maybe I shouold also make the switch for the time being (or forever, who knows...)

Does FCKeditor work with MAC?

Hi Spirelli

don't know - I only own a MAC with MAC-OS 8.x and there is a 'Ur'-old Netscape on it - and with this it doesn't.

FCKeditor works with Mac. (OS X 10.3.8 and Firefox)

Try it: http://www.fckeditor.net/demo/default.html

i;m getting the same problem, anyone found a solution? i thought it could be in spaw/dialogs/a.php but i didn't found the place there to change something, maybe you will be more lucky...

Same problems here, using 1.2.1

The URL's are re-written with include/inc_ext/spaw/ prepending them.
This occurs when article contents are reloaded...ie in updating scenario.

Very frustrating. The client prefers spaw, so no choice on my end.
I hope this issue gets some attention...has to be simple path/config issue, but I have been unable to fix.....

perplexed

Hi,

We are aware of this bug in 1.1 beta and it will be fixed in the next release. Actually it's already fixed and you can grab a working version with some other fixes from CVS (if you know how to).

Best regards,

We have a small issue with SPAW here. Could you perhaps have a look on the phpwcms forum: http://phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6135
Maybe you can help and tell us whether there is a fix for this. I think the last phpwcms version has the last beta release of SPAW.

Many thanks
Markus

I am new to cvs
downloaded wincvs and tried to save a copy of dev spaw, but with no luck.
to download all files 1 by 1 takes ~ 400 files, so this is not an option. Can somebody help?

and is "spaw_control.config.php" is the only file that I must change in order spaw to work corect with phpwcms
thanks

OK GOOD NEWS..........

Alan Mendelevich just posted a new version of the script.js.php which fixed the stripAbsoluteUrls function.
I downloaded and at least as far as this annoying bug is concerned, it is now history.

It can be downloaded here:

Just wanted to add this note.

Although the new posting fixed certain problems, it strips out absolute urls, which are needed if using spaw to compose newsletters. Using the new script.js.php.......all links back to your wcms site are dead:

instead of:
http://www.mySite.com/index.php?myPage

it returns:
/index.php?myPage

inside email

spirelli - any chance you could contact again, since he likely is familiar with your original email..........

Too bad there wasn't a way to turn the "strip absolute urls" function on and off, as in the case of newsletters, it isn't always desirable to make links document relative.
