  3. Template based editor

    This is something I made for my webhost (I'm a mod there) in January, an easy-to-use editor made for people new to creating websites. What does everyone think about it?

    Demo
    Website

    (the WYSIWYG editor doesn't work in the demo, since my webhost's FTP is down and it would take a long time to upload it manually with the file manager)

    It uses files in each user's website to store data. I probably could have used the serialize() function to put some of the things together in one file, but I didn't know about that function then.

    *GASP*
    Go MySQL!!!
    Could you provide a working-ish demo?
    Ummmmm, better get rid of that PHP editor FAST
    Youve got Bugs! Can't copy in a loooooooooooooong html doc into the editor
    Wait, the PHP editor is broken (adds slashes)

    Fixed the PHP editor.

    Apparently GET isn't the best method for saving a file. Wow, that was a really bad thing for me to do... I tried to change it, but my webhost's file manager (I coded that too) doesn't seem to work with text areas, it won't let me save it.

    I didn't use MySQL because if I did each user file would have to have the main account's password in it, or include a file that did, which would be bad.


    I also can't remove the PHP editor because of problem #1. I'll do that when FTP works again.

    Hmm, wonder why the file browser isn't working?

    :p

    I think it's because the edit.php file in the template editor has a </textarea> in it, and Firefox thinks that's the end of the file manager's edit textarea.

    Well, umm, you would think that would think that the textarea has ended when it encounters </textarea>

    Anyways, back on topic

    ZENDURL?!?! You us them?
    The blue box behind the textarea is too short

    "FCK editor not found"
    You *can* delete the index.php file...

    Fixed the plain text editor, added the WYSIWYG editor, and removed the PHP editor.

    The box the text area is in doesn't look too short to me, in Firefox.
