FCKeditor Plugin 0.5.1 Released
June 21st, 2008
Thanks to George Chatzigeorgiou there is now a version of the FCKeditor plugin that works with Rails 2.1. I have put the packages on Ruby Forge and updated the repository. If you are interested as to what the issue was check out George’s comments on the previous post.
June 23rd, 2008 at 10:17 AM Flash Upload is not working for me. Hi, i'am using Rails 2.1 and your FCKEditor Plugin 0.5.1. If i try to upload a flash movie it fails with a javascript popup "Invalid file". On the console i can see an error: "application/x-shockwave-flash2-preview is invalid MIME type". The same error happens in your demo. But on this site it is working: http://www.fckeditor.net/demo What is the problem with this MIME-Typ. If downloaded a few *.swf files an they all are reported as xxx-flash2-preview Thank!
June 24th, 2008 at 02:36 PM @Harald if you look in the fckeditor_controller at the top the mime type for flash is "application/x-shockwave-flash" I guess that needs expanding. But, for now you can just add your own mime types there.
June 24th, 2008 at 06:59 PM Grr, i already tried that and it didn't work. But now it is :-). I guess i forgot to restart the server last time. Thank you
June 24th, 2008 at 09:22 PM Great work guys! Just updated the plugin from 0.5.0 to 0.5.1 and I can now upload images to my rails 2.1 project. Thanks for you time Scott and George..
June 27th, 2008 at 07:45 PM Glad I could help. You should thank Scott. He did all the work :)
June 30th, 2008 at 03:08 PM Hi, The plugin is really great but I'm wondering : Is it possible to also delete files when you upload files? (like in the pro version of tinymce) Thanks:)
July 14th, 2008 at 11:03 AM The 'Link File Upload' does not work for me (Rails 2.1 / FCKEditor 0.5.1). The file is uploaded, but the dialogue seems not to get a proper response from the server. When clicking on "OK", a javascript popup says "Please type the link URL". There is no javascript / ruby error. Here's the console output :

You need to use the CKFinder extension. Unfortunatly, the server-side API is only implemented for PHP / ColdFusion / ASP. I you do see a ruby/rails implementation, let me know... ;-) davidonlaptop [at a website named] gmail [dot] comJuly 16th, 2008 at 11:46 AM Hi there, thanks for a great plugin. I have it all working nicely except I'm a bit stuck using it in form_for with nested resources. I have the following:
<% form_for([@client, @campaign], :html => { :multipart => true }) do |f| %> ... <% @campaign.video_jams.each do |video| %> <% fields_for "video_jams[#{video.id}]", video do |v| %> <%= fckeditor_textarea("video", "body", :toolbarSet => "Basic", :width => "400px", :height => "200px") %> <% end %> <% end %> ... <% end %>in the editor call I currently have 'video' which makes the editor bar only appear for the first object in the loop. I know that 'video' is not the right thing to use. Is this even possible? Any help much appreciated!
