Xinha WYSIWYG plugin not loading automatically

I'm still working on my Spanish translation of Bricolage (I'm working on
version 1.11.1 (trunk)), and have encountered a few strange things while
using the UI.

When I create a story, if I include WYSIWYG widget-type Bricolage
elements in it (in my case paragraphs), the Xinha editor I have enabled
in the configuration doesn't seem to load automatically for every
textarea included. It is only when I save the story that the Xinha
textareas "go alive". So my procedure is to include a new paragraph
element instance, save and stay, and then write and format the paragraph
in the now enabled Xinha textarea.

Has any of you experienced this problem? Do you know a workaround?

Thanks and best regards,

Michael

It was a bug, and has been fixed. You should grab the sources from
GitHub:

http://github.com/bricoleurs/bricolage/tree/master

Thanks David. Someone else has probably addressed the problem in the
past already, and I missed the corresponding messages.

I don't think there were messages on the list, but there was a
Bugzilla issue for it.

BTW I have noticed that Xinha loads a PHP page (the one that applies the
spell checking logic) when you enable the spell checking in
Bricolage.conf. I had to add the corresponding handler in my httpd.conf.
I don't know whether it is "overkill" to add this handler in the
automatic configuration of httpd.conf done by Bricolage. At least Xinha
users should know that they will need mod_php and add the corresponding
handler in the config file in order to be able to use spell checking.

Best,

Michael

Oh, is *that* why it doesn't work? Can you send me the code you added
to httpd.conf to get it to work properly?

Thanks,

Well, I just added the php handler to the Xinha Location directive
<Location /media/wysiwyg/xinha/plugins/SpellChecker> :

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php

I've added handlers for .php4 and .php5 too, but I guess this is hardly
necessary.

Oh. There must be a way to do it with Perl, instead…

This goes beyond my Perl knowledge :-) I just noticed that when I
clicked on the Spell Checker button in the Xinha text area the plugin
loaded a page the server was not able to interpret correctly. So it was
just a matter of reconfiguring Apache. On the other hand it would be
nice if Config. pm could handle this. Or did you mean something around
PHP::Interpreter? I had to disable it in my install, because it fired up
an error (apparently due to an obsolete PHP::Interpreter against newer
PHP versions - this was already commented in the list).

Here is what the README file says in media/wysiwyg/xinha/plugins/SpellChecker:

-----------------------------
ExecCGI Note:
If you intend to use the perl (.cgi) backend then you will need to have the ExecCGI option enabled f
or this directory (if you are using Apache), you may be able to do this by adding a file called .hta
ccess in this directory, with the below contents.

## EXAMPLE .htaccess
Options +ExecCGI
####################

It is however recommended that you use the PHP backend where possible.
-----------------------------

It looks like perl should work as well.
