Last week, I finally end with the upgrade of FCKeditor to version 2.6.2 in Dokeos. FCKeditor is the html editor use probably in all the interaction that a user have in Dokeos.
There were some difficulties with these upgrade since Dokeos use it in several tools: Learning Path, Documents, Survey, Exercises, and a long etc.
The BIG problem was to add, update or rewrite the javascript code (fckeditorcode_gecko.js and fckeditorcode_ie.js) that FCKeditor use. You can take a look, is a little bit messy but works. These javascript code was made like that in order to compress the file.
Here some updates:
- FCKeditor plugins added: FLVMediaPlayer, EmbedMovies, FlashPLayer and the MP3 player create specially for Dokeos.
- Finally, FCKeditor works with Opera.
- Creating and editing Flash documents works fine.
- No more popups! These version of FCKeditor works with DIVs.
- Is much faster than the old version.
I will update to the last version of FCKeditor 2.6.3 if that fix some problems.
There are also a discussion about the possible changes that the Document tool will have soon.
Yesterday the dev.dokeos.com was updated with these changes,
Here the SVN you can check it out.
