Customize FCK editor CSS stylesheet

[HENRY Pierre]

Hello,

I would like to use my own template set's stylesheet for text edited in
FCK editor.

I know I can put this in /WEB-INF/etc/htmleditors/htmleditors_config.xml
as a css tag.

My problem is that our CSS is a jsp file that's included in the template
sets. So the path of the css file would be something like
/jsp/jahia/templates/<my site>/<template set in use>/css.jsp

The second specialty is that the css uses a parameter that is stored as
a site-level meta-data, to chose between 6 different color sets.

So in the ideal, what I would like to be able to do is to get the
current site's name, the value of the meta data for the current site,
call the jsp and use the generated result my stylesheet in fck editor
(or any other editor).

Any idea as to how to realize this, even partially ? Should the jsp-css
be stored in a static path, not in the templates directory ? Any pointer
welcome !

Best Regards

Pierre Henry

Hello Pierre,

which version of Jahia are you using currently? Is it Jahia 5.0 SP3
(build 18957)?
In Jahia 5.0 SP3 it is possible to configure separate CSS stylesheet
(per virtual site or even per template) for the FCKeditor.

Kind regards
Sergiy

Hello Pierre,

for now you can configure one JSP, which will generate the CSS file (or
include others) based on the current site.
The solution is not perfect, as you said, but will work.

For example, you configure a file /jsp/jahia/engines/css/test_css.jsp
file for the FCKeditor (htmleditors_config.xml), with the following content:

<%@ page import="org.jahia.params.ProcessingContext,
org.jahia.services.sites.JahiaSite" %><%
    response.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-store, no-cache,
must-revalidate, max-age=0"); //HTTP 1.1
    response.addHeader("Cache-Control","post-check=0, pre-check=0");
    response.setHeader("Pragma","no-cache"); //HTTP 1.0
    response.setDateHeader ("Expires", -1);

JahiaSite site = (JahiaSite)
session.getAttribute(ProcessingContext.SESSION_SITE);
if (site != null) {
    String colorSet = "green"; // obtain the color set based on site data
    String cssPath = "/jsp/jahia/templates/" + site.getSiteKey() +
"/corporate_portal_templates/web_css.jsp"; // obtain the path to CSS or
a JSP, that generates CSS, based on the site key
   
    %><jsp:include page="<%=cssPath %>"/>
<% } %>

Based on the current site, you can include different CSS stylesheets or
calculate a path to a JSP, which will generate CSS styles.
The only problem I see here is that you will need to set proper response
headers to disabled client-side caching, as different stylessheets will
be served under the same URL.


Another possibility is to adjust the
/jsp/jahia/htmleditors/fckeditor/fckeditor_htmleditor.jsp according to
your needs and set the value of the JavaScript variable for FCKeditor:

   oFCKeditor.Config.EditorAreaCSS

to a proper path based on the current site, metadata or another
information. This should not be hard to change.
This approach seems more robust and consistent for me (also the
stylesheets can be cached by the client, improving the performance). The
advantage here is that your also have access to all Jahia objects
(ParamBean, JahiaData etc.) to be able to retrieve the required data.


Kind regards
Sergiy

Users will have to select the right color set to match their site's color set. Not perfet but it will work in most cases. Until we migrate to 5.0 SP3...
