I started to learn grails and now I am trying to develop a simple blog.
I created the domain model(User, Tag, Comment, Category, Post), controllers.
I installed fckeditor plugin(for adding new posts). I want to add ui interface, which will be support wysiwyg editor.
But I do not understand how does fckeditor store images, which will be linked to post.
Advice please some links or code samples.
... the editor stores the images in a folder that you need to specify. If I remember correctly it will insert the photo at point of cursor in the editor panel. There's another way to deal with it also. Upload your images/create thumbnails and where you have the thumbnails displayed on the page (say as links to full blown pixes) drag one onto the fckeditor pane and it will drop the thumbnail/link at cursor.
I'm sure you've been here as well ;-)

I am new to Symfony and I need to work to a large project with many themes to modify them. How can I find where actually is the theme file in which module, just looking at the HTML browser output? Or do I need to look somewhere else, routing for example?
What you want to do is use the Web Debug Toolbar.
Once you have that running on the page, using appname_dev.php, simple click the view link and it will show you which templates have been used. If you need to know which layout to use then use logs link, click none the sfPHPView.
I inherited the management of a Symfony site and need to add some HTMl form tags to one of the "static" pages via the CMS. The scenario I have is:
/index.php/splash/welcome pulls up the welcome screen.
We want to be able to add a subscription button on that page.
The HTML has been supplied for us by the company that handles the subscriptions.
The form post method has an action that references a script on a remote site (no lectures on the security implications please ;-).
When I add the <form... and <input... tags via the CMS admin panel, the tags get removed automatically by Symfony.
Is there a way to tell Symfony to allow these tags?
Thanks in advance,
Marty.
This is goign to depend completely on how the developer set up the CMS. Youre using a rich text editor in source mode i would take a look at that editor's config file and documentation because its probably the one responsible for stripping the tags.
If its just a plain text area i would check the submit action for the edit form and take a look at the code... he may be using something to strip them in there.
If youre using one of the Symfony CMS plugins (Diem, Apostrophe, Sympal) i might be able to help further if i know which one youre using. If its something custom we would need to see the code. This isnt really indiciative of the Symfony core, but rather the CMS youre using.
i have tinymce embedded in my website, so if users want to edit content, then can click on an "EDIT" link and it brings up the content in tinymce editor. when they click "Save", i save the html to a database. this works perfect and avoids them calling me when they need content changes as they can go in directly and next time they reload the main page, it loads up their changed content.
they now want to be able to add their own images. I see there is some image support in tinymce as seen here, but in my case, the images would be on their computer.
So i am looking for some advice on how to handle image support using tinymce on my asp.net mvc website similar to how stackoverflow allows you to upload and include an image in your question all in one step
any suggestions?
I guess you need to take a look here:
Best TinyMce editor Image Manager / File upload for Asp.net Mvc
it has a list of tinyMCE file browsers/uploaders/managers which work with MVC :)
I had a similar issue and solved it by;
Allowing the user to upload images which i then stored in the file system.
Once the image was saved then you could use tinyMCE to link to it.
It's a round-about way of doing it but it worked. If your images are stored on a users computer then you're going to need to implement something like this me thinks as you can't assume you can link to the image and if you can you can't be sure the computer will be on.
Maybe you can give this TinyMCE-plugin a try (the official Moxiecode plugins are quite expensive):
http://www.phpletter.com/Demo/Tinymce-Ajax-File-Manager/
I haven't tested it yet, but it's a free add on that allows uploading and selecting files.
HTML 5 supports embedded images. You can embed image in html code as a base64 string.
Example Code:
<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhDwAPAKECAAAAzMzM/////wAAACwAAAAADwAPAAACIISPeQHsrZ5ModrLlN48CXF8m2iQYmmKqVlRtW4MLwWACH+H09wdGltaXplZCBieSBVbGVhZCBTbWFydFNhdmVyIQAAOw==" alt="Base64 encoded image" width="150" height="150"/>
There is a opensource TinyMCE plugin available in github:

My site currently has some static pages. I'm looking for a rails wysiwyg webtool with which I can change those static pages (with images) dynamically. The number of pages is fixed and I don't have to be able to dynamically add new.
Update
The site already has a design template assigned which I don't need to change. I only need to be able to change the content of some of the pages.
Someone can suggest me something?
Thanks
Stijn
Are you looking for a server site tool that facilitates editing static HTML files but uses a web browser interface?
If so I think that only solves part of the problem. You pages still have, presumably, some common "furniture" like a Banner pane, Left pane, Right pane, Footer. If you want to change these you will have to edit every file. What about if you have telephone number in the Banner - if that changed it would be better to just change that centrally.
These are problems that a Content Management System addresses, so if you are not familiar with that you may want to read up on CMS.
To compare CMS systems see: http://cmsmatrix.org/matrix/cms-matrix?func=search
You can enter "Rails" or maybe "Ruby" in the Language field of the Search form
