Several months ago I asked about the syntax for {texteditor} and one of the replies from BI4CE said that {TEXTEDITER...} works only with the FTB editor. Recently I have seen sevaral posts that indicate that people are using the FCK editor -

http://www.bi4ce.com/Support/Forums/tabid/106/forumid/7/postid/11936/view/topic/Default.aspx
http://www.bi4ce.com/Support/Forums/tabid/106/forumid/7/postid/12003/view/topic/Default.aspx
http://www.bi4ce.com/Support/Forums/tabid/106/forumid/7/postid/11963/view/topic/Default.aspx

and another post that says LISTX will use whatever HTML editor is set as the default provider.

So which is it? I cannot get {TEXTEDITOR to work at all, it is trying to load FTB, although there is no FTB reference AT ALL in my web.config} (Using LISTX 1.9.9 DNN 4.9) Is anybody out there actually using the FCK editor in ListX?

Took me ages but I finally got FCK to work thanks to Pauldes & Sindura.

Example:

{TextEditor,fldAddProductDescription,fldAddProductDescription,Form,500,300}

For example with validation please see here:

Goodluck!

Thanks,
I have read all those posts but the basic problem still exists - When I use [TEXTEDITOR.., ListX tries to load the FTB editor (I had the FTB folder still on the site from older installations, but all references to it have been removed from web.config) What I get is a non-working FTB textbox that does not conform to the sizes specified. When I remove the FTB folder completely, the FTB control appears on the screen (with all the images missing):

In Firefox I get the following javascript alert.

The AJAX request contains a javascript error: ed.document is undefined

in IE The following text appears in the text area:

FreeTextBox has not been correctly installed. To install FreeTextBox either:
(1) add a reference to FtbWebResource.axd in web.config:
<system.web>
<httpHandlers>
<add verb="GET"
path="FtbWebResource.axd"
type="FreeTextBoxControls.AssemblyResourceHandler, FreeTextBox" />
</httpHandlers>
</system.web>

(2) Save the FreeTextBox image and javascript files to a location on your website and set up FreeTextBox as follows
<FTB:FreeTextBox id="FreeTextBox1" SupportFolder="ftbfileslocation" JavaScriptLocation="ExternalFile" ButtonImagesLocation="ExternalFile" ToolbarImagesLocation="ExternalFile" ButtonImagesLocation="ExternalFile" runat="server" />


What I don't understand is why I get FTB and it does not try to load FCK - I have completely removed any reference to FTB in web.config, upgraded ListX to 1.99 and upgraded DNN to 4.9 is there something else that has to be done?

This is one of the most frustrating applications I have ever worked with - a lot of stuff ALMOST works.

I'm having the same exact problem. Anyone come up with a solution yet?

I haven't managed to solve it. I think that perhaps all files may not have been updated when i upgraded ListX, but have not had time to track that down. i am also having big issues with tinymce as well in anything except the simplest of applications. Once lxFetch is run on a page tinymce is toilet bound. It seems that the ability to easily and fully use an HTML editor is one of the big weaknesses of ListX. XMOD is leaps and bounds better in that regard.
