(Actually, the editor automatically "grows" empty elements to make the user able to enter text on it). Attention: the extra   will be added when switching from WYSIWYG to Source View, so the user may see an additional space on empty blocks. (XHTML support must be enabled).

  • [SF BUG-1060073] The <STYLE> and <SCRIPT> elements contents will be handled as is, without CDATA tag surrounding. This may break XHTML validation. In any case the use of external files for scripts and styles is recommended (W3C recommendation).

• [SF BUG-1085034] [SF BUG-1076796] Some bugs in the PHP connector have been corrected.
• A problem with the "Format" command on IE browsers on languages different of English has been solved. The negative side of this correction is that due to a IE bad design it is not possible to update the "Format" combo while moving throw the text (context sensitive).
• On Gecko browsers, when selecting an image and executing the "New Page" command, the image handles still appear, even if the image is not available anymore (this is a Gecko bug). When clicking in a "phanton" randle, the browser crashes. It doesn't happen (the crash) anymore.
• [SF BUG-1082197] On ASP, the bug in the browser detection system for Gecko browsers has been corrected. Thanks to Alex Varga.

• [SF BUG-1077747] The missing images on the Office2003 and Silver skins are now included in the package.

• [SF BUG-1004078] ColdFusion: The "config" structure/hash table with keys and values is in ColdFusion not(!) case sensitive. All keys returned by ColdFusion are in upper case format. Because the FCKeditor configuration keys must be case sensitive, we had to match all structure/hash keys with a list of the correct configuration names in mixed case. This has been added to the fckeditor.cfc and fckeditor.cfm.
• [SF BUG-1075166] ColdFusion: The "fallback" variant of the texteditor (<textarea>) has a bug in the fckeditor.cfm. This has been fixed.

• A new "_docs" folder has been introduced for the documentation. It is not yet complete, but I hope the community will help us to fill it better.
• It is now possible (even if it is not recommended by the W3C) to force the use of simple ampersands (&) on attributes (like the links href) instead of its entity &amp;. Just set FCKConfig.ForceSimpleAmpersand = true in the configuration file.

• The editor is now integrated with ieSpell (http://www.iespell.com) for Spell Checking. You can configure the download URL in then fck_config.js file. Thanks to Sanjay Sharma. (ieSpell is free for personal use but must be paid for commercial use)
• Table and table cell dialogs has been changed. Now you can select the class you want to be applied. Thanks to Alexander Lezos.
• [SF Feature-865378]A new upload support is available for ASP. It uses the /UserImages/ folder in the root of the web site as the files container and a counter controlled by the upload.cnt file. Both must have write permissions set to the IUSR_xxx user. Thanks to Trax and Juanjo.
• [SF Patch-798128] The user (programmer) can now define a custom separator for the list items of a combo in the toolbar. Thanks to Wulff D. Heiss.
• [SF Feature-741963][SF Feature-878941][SF Patch-869389] A minimal support for a fake TAB is now available, even if HTML has no support for TAB. Now when the user presses the TAB key a configurable number of spaces (&nbsp;) is added. Take a look at config.TabSpaces on the fck_config.js file. No action is performed if it is set to zero. The default value is 4. Thanks to Phil Hassey.
• [SF BUG-782779][SF BUG-790939] The problem with big images has been corrected. Thanks to Raver.

Version 1.3.1

• It's now possible to configure the editor the insert a <BR> tag instead of <P> when the user presses the <Enter> key. Take a look at the fck_config.js configuration file for the "UseBROnCarriageReturn" key. This option is disabled by default.
• Icelandic language pack. Thanks to Andri skarsson.
• [SF BUG-853374] On IE 5.0 there was a little error introduced with version 1.3 on initialization. It was corrected.

• It's now possible to override any of the editor's configurations (for now it's implemented just for JavaScript, ASPX and HTC modules). See _test/test.html for a sample. I'm now waiting for the Community for the ASP, CFM and PHP versions.
• A new method is available for PHP users. It's called ReturnFCKeditor. It works exactly like CreateFCKeditor, but it returns a string with the HTML for the editor instead of output it (echo). This feature is useful for people who are working with Smarty Templates or something like that. Thanks to Timothy J. Finucane.
• Many people have had problems with international characters over PHP. I had also the same problem. PHP have strange problems with character encoding. The code hasn't been changed but just saved again with Western European encoding. Now it works well in my system.
  Take a look also at the "default_charset" configuration option at the php.ini file. It doesn't seem to be an editor's problem but a PHP issue.
• The "testsubmit.php" file now strips the "Magic Quotes " that are automatically added by PHP on form posts.
• A new language integration module is available for ASP/Jscript. Thanks to Dimiter Naydenov.
• New configuration options are available to customize the Target combo box in the Insert/Modify Link dialog box. Now you can hide it, or set which options are available in the combo box. Take a look at the fck_config.js file.
• The Text as Plain Text toolbar icon has been changed to avoid confusion with the Normal Paste or. Thanks to Kaupo Kalda.
• The file dhtmled.cab has been removed from the package. It's not needed to the editor to work and caused some confusion for a few users.

• On drag-and-drop operations the data to be inserted in the editor is now converted to plain text when the "ForcePasteAsPlainText" configuration is set to true.

Version 1.2

• Enhancements to the Word cleaning feature (Thanks to Karl von Randow).
• The Table dialog box now handles the Style width and height set in the table (Thanks to Roberto Arruda). There where many problems on prior version when people changed manually the table's size, dragging the size handles, and then it was not possible to set a new size using the table dialog box.
• For the Image dialog box:
  • No image is shown in the preview pane if no image has been set.
  • If no HSpace is set in the image a "-1" value was shown in the dialog box. Now, nothing is shown if the value is negative.
• [SF BUG-739630] Image with link lost the link when changing its properties. The problem is solved.

• A few addition of missing entries on all languages files (translations for these changes are pending).
• Language files has been added for the following languages:
  • Brazilian Portuguese (pt-br)
  • Czech (cz)
  • Dutch (nl)
  • Russian (ru)
  • Chinese (Taiwan) (zh-tw)
  • Greek (gr)
  • German (de)

Version 1.1

• The "Multi Language" system is now available. This version ships with English and Italian versions completed. Other languages will be available soon. The editor automatically detects the client language and sets all labels, tooltips and dialog boxes to it, if available. The auto detection and the default language can be set in the fck_config.file.
• Two files can now be created to isolate customizations code from the original source code of the editor: fckeditor.config.js and fckeditor.custom.js. Create these files in the root folder of your web site, if needed. The first one can be used to add or override configurations set on fck_config.js. The second one is used for custom actions and behaviors.
• A problem with relative links and images like "/test/test.doc" has been solved. In prior versions, only with XHTML support enabled, the URL was changed to something like "http://www.mysite.xxx/test/test.doc" (The domain was automatically added). Now the XHTML cleaning procedure gets the URLs exactly how they are defined in the editors HTML.

It's also possible to define the link title and target window (_blank, _self, _parent and _top). As with the image dialog box, a sample (and simple) file server browser is available.

• [SF BUG-712103] The style command is localized, so it depends on the IE language to work. Until version 0.9.5 it was working only over English IE browsers. Now it configures itself using the client's language.
• [SF BUG-726137] On version 0.9.5, some commands (special chars, image, emoticons, ...) remove the next available character before inserting the required content even if no selection was made in the editor. Now the editor replaces only the selected content (if available).
