I finally was able to see the HTML Editor bug in IE/XP that everyone
was talking about, and it's a very serious bug as it makes Moodle 1.3
almost unusable for these people. :-( :-(
So, I eventually found out that the problem is that the Javascript that
attaches the editor has troubles when it is embedded within the table that course/mod.php puts around the mod.html forms in each module.
(Only in IE and only sometimes, mind you).
While testing I also had a good look at a long standing issue which is the
inconsistency of the mod.html forms when using the editor.
So, to fix both I decided to put the HTML editor calls OUTSIDE the mod.html
in the mod.php file. This means that all modules get the HTML editor by default
on all text areas during activity module setup by default.
I've been running through this for the past few hours and it seems
pretty stable now and a lot more consistent, so I'm checking it in
as big fix towards the Moodle 1.3.1 we have to have.
Unfortunately it also means the API has changed a bit ... I had to
update all the module dependencies to this exact version (or later).
Please test this "stable" version hard using the standard modules only
and I'll merge these changes over to the trunk in a day or so and update
all known third-party modules.
These are the changes from MOODLE_13_STABLE, merged into trunk
The tag MOODLE_13_MERGED on the MOODLE_13_STABLE branch now refers to this point
The biggest changes here are the fixes for HTML editor in all standard modules
Integrated with Moodle:
- Install automatically.
- Update course->blockinfo for each course at installation time.
- Modified course creation to insert into blockinfo field.
- Modified restore to insert into blockinfo field.
- Admin options (hide, show, delete, config) from admin page.
- Lang strings inserted (en only).
- Database support to mysql and postgresql (not tested!!).
Moodle, backup and block versions updated to 2004041800.
Tested with mysql: Install fresh and upgrade from previous.
section_activities block renamed to social_activities and created
its own lang file to support name "Social Activities". This can
be changed at any time.
