Just been alerted to and proved that this mod causes the Safari Browser on and iPad to close when the button is clicked. Using it in Chrome on an iPad just freezes Chrome with the popup window visible, can't click OK or Cancel.

Am just installing Safari on a Win 8.1 box to test and will report.

My and my friend's iPads both show the same issue, we're both on iOS 8.3

Just tested on Safari on iPhone running iOS 8.3 and it crashed.

Thanks, just installed it. Works great for our not-internet savvy target group   ;D

Hi Arantor,

Any way to remove the "http://" from the input box? We have many users with tablets that do not automatically overwrite it when pasting in a URL. Works OK on a PC as it's pre highlighted but with iPad and some other devices the highlighting is cancelled when pasting in the URL so you get two "http://"s and have to edit the box. Seems a bit superfluous anyway when copying and pasting a URL, as they always have the http:// included even if it does not show in the address bar.

I tried changing this:


var sText = prompt(oEditorStrings['prompt_text_url'], 'http://');


to this


var sText = prompt(oEditorStrings['prompt_text_url'], '');


but it made no difference, the http:// was still there.

I uninstalled the mod and edited the editor j script file to remove all hard coded 'http://' s but still there so gave up.

I don't use the WYSIWYG editor at all. I checked the BBC code too for the button but editing that to failed to remove the http:// from the box so reinstalled your mod and told folk to edit the dialog but it would be nice to be able to remove it.

If it's simply, no, can't be done then fair enough but had to ask.

Thanks
Chas.

That should generally do it for non WYSIWYG but if you only edited the file, you might still be using an old cache version, so edit it then do a hard refresh or clear your cache manually.

Arghhh, the dreaded cache. I did clear the browser cache but not the forum cache. Doing both and reloading did indeed do the job.

Thanks.

@Arantor It looks little but here I leave the translation to the Latin Spanish ... I'll use it without hesitation to something I have in mind!

Hmm I've installed this but I can't get it to work. I've got WYSIWYG disabled across the board because people paste some weird stuff and it is a disaster so I know it's not that. I don't have any other BBC mods installed either. Any tips? I can't find any settings either. Using Chrome if that makes a difference (but I sure hope not) :).

Hi,

just installed it on 2.0.12. Unfortunately it simply overwrites any selected text and asks for a new description. Is there an updated version of this mod that already contains the "GetSelectedText" feature?

Kolya

This uses the selected text to create a link. It only prompts for linktext if no text was selected before.
Tested in Firefox, Chrome and IE 11.

@ Kolya: I tested the version listed on the Mod-page and was pretty happy with it.

Luckily I checked this thread as well, because this version is even better, thank you very, very much!   ;D

franhaselden

Just gave the 1.0.3 and don't see any change... Using WYSIWG. Any ideas how to debug?

Kolya

Uninstall the previous version, install 1.0.3.
Select some text in the editor, click the link button. Enter a URL.
The text you selected is used as link-text.

Luckily I found it again I had lost it from my bookmarks :'(
