2.0 - Turn HTML editor option off?
Hi,

Is there currently any way, or will there be any way to turn the HTML editor option off completely so it's not available to users? Or is it simply a matter of removing links from the templates so they can't select it?

Cheers,

Regan.

Right now it's just a matter of removing the Switch to HTML mode on the compose.html template, and removing the options from the Options page.

Just out of curiosity, why do you want to remove it?

Cheers,

Alex

Actually I can't see it. How to use this HTML editor?

Yes, I am trying with IE 5 too. Hmmm.

Templates > Editor > Then scroll down to the BOTTOM of the main frame and there should be a link above the SAVE button saying "Switch to html Editor".

It's not really hard to find is it?

Doh.. I thought that it is on front end.
Of course I know the back end HTML editor.

Thanks

On the front end you will only see it if you have IE 5.5.

I just wonder why it is working in IE 5.0 in admin but not for users?
Please point me to the proper thread, if this question was already answered.

Thank you.

We found some problems with IE 5.0 so we disabled it in the user side, but not in the admin. You can change it in GMail.pm line 389:

unshift @opts, { is_ie5 => ($ENV{HTTP_USER_AGENT} and $ENV{HTTP_USER_AGENT} =~ /MSIE 5\.5/i) ? 1 : 0 };

Change MSIE 5\.5 to MSIE 5 and it should work for all ie 5+.

The problems we encountered were:

1. The right click menu did not display properly.
2. On some installations it would pop up trying to install Office 2000.

This wasn't on all IE 5.0's, just some we encounted in the office.

Hope that helps,

Alex

Hi,

I'd turn the HTML editor off becuase it doesn't work accross both IE and Netscape - I use Netscape. I thought it was also enabled in the user area but it doesn't look like it, so it's not much of an issue really.

cheers
