Web Design & Programming - Tell me your opinion

Post subject: Tell me your opinion
Hello,
I just finished the developing of a custom basic CMS application for use by my SFI affiliates who don't have the required knowledge to build a web site from scratch.
You can find a demo site at http://8862746.web-gr.net/
The site's administration panel is located at http://8862746.web-gr.net/admin (you can login by using the password demo) and provides all the required (in my opinion) functionality.

Please feel free to share with me any ideas on how this site could be improved.

Thanks!!!

Hello John,

I took a quick look at your new CMS, especially at the Visual Editor that the system uses, and I like it better than the Visual Editor used in the Powersite System. In fact, I noticed that it is an Open Source program. Would it be possible to substitute the FCK editor for the Visual Editor that we are using now? (Question for Mufad Smile )

The Site Configuration Panel also looks fairly simple to use.

One thing that I would definately include in the package is a tutorial that is written at a very basic level. If you don't have such a tutorial yet, let me know, and I might be able to help you with it. I wrote the basic tutorials for the Powersite System, and can probably be persuaded to do the same thing for your system.

The fckeditor is the best (in my opinion) free online html editor you can find. It took me a lot of reasearch and testing to find that.
If I'm correct the powersite system is based on post-nuke CMS (or is it php-nuke?). If you search google for fckeditor and post-nuke you will find many articles on how to use those two. I can probably help you with that!

No I don't have a turorial yet. This is basically of my not so good knowledge of the English language. Furthermore I'm really bad at writing anything (I'm a technical guy Very Happy ).
Any help on that task would be great. Drop me an email if you're willing to help, to discuss more details about that.

Thanks again!

Hello John,

I did a little searching on a couple of forums concerning postnuke and the fckeditor and found the following;

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/marksmodules/modules/FCKEditor/

Maybe Mufad can take a look at it for possible inclusion in powersite.

In postnuke, the code in the footer that automatically changes all textareas to use the visual editor is
Code:

<!--Visual Editor Plug-in--><script type="text/javascript">QBPATH='/javascript'; VISUAL=0; SECURE=1;</script><script type="text/javascript" src='/javascript/quickbuild.js'></script><script type="text/javascript" src='/javascript/tabedit.js'></script>


I studied the install of fckeditor, it does not lend itself to this format, it requires that each text area on the page be individually named and marked for fckeditor use.

Anyway, I found http://forums.postnuke.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=18723

I will have a go at replacing the add stories and edit stories to use the fckeditor, it will require change in several places.
If anyone finds a better solution please let me know,
Robert, the link you sent, how did you find it ? I dont see how the editor can be a module in postnuke, there is no documentation on that site, we should find a way to contact the author and ask them if the module is in completion stage and what is its purpose.
Mufad.

Hello Mufad,
just some advise:
Do not use fckeditor as a client side object using javascript code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor( 'FCKeditor1' ) ;
oFCKeditor.BasePath = '/FCKeditor/' ;
oFCKeditor.Value = 'This is some <strong>sample text</strong>. You are using <a href="http://www.fckeditor.net/">FCKeditor</a>.' ;
oFCKeditor.Create() ;
//-->
</script>

Instead use it as an object created at the server side:
<?php
$oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('FCKeditor1') ;
$oFCKeditor->BasePath = '/FCKeditor/';
$oFCKeditor->Value = 'This is some <strong>sample text</strong>. You are using <a href="http://www.fckeditor.net/">FCKeditor</a>.';
$oFCKeditor->Create() ;
?>




I noticed that sometimes (long contents that are fetched from a database and contain newline characters) "break" in the javascript code.

Hello Mufad,

Sorry it took so long to respond to this thread. Have you looked at this thread at Marks Modules?

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/marksmodules/modules/FCKEditor/pnadmin.php?rev=1.1&view=markup

A lot of this stuff is way above my knowledge level, but it might mean more to you.
