default text editor question

[Bob Paige-2]

When using the default text editor to enter a link, I see a 'ghosted' popup
on the left of the screen with potential matches. While the visual list is
nice, is there any way to select items from the list? Every keystroke I've
tried (even clicking on it) doesn't seem to work.

Also, I see a 'tab-completion' option below the editor. Is this something
different, or related to the popup?

Thanks.

I think it only works on Firefox; Dirk can give a better update.

No idea...  Our documentation relating to the features in the default  
editor is very lacking.  Could someone please open up a JIRA ticket  
on this?

It is supposed to work properly on FF, Safari, IE, and probably other
browsers too.
Clicking one of the listed-items should automatically insert the
link-text in the editor-area.

Take a look at http://www.jspwiki.org/wiki/PostEditor.  Hope this helps.

Dirk,

Thanks for the link. This explains all the functionality that previously was
hidden to me.

BTW, clicking on the list (at least in FF3.0) doesn't do anything.

Strange, my FF3.0 expands the links as expected.
Which versions of JSPWiki are you using.  Make sure to use one of the
later versions cause many bugs were resolved during the last couple of
months.

Expanding the snippets works fine, but the popup list of links is not
clickable.

I am using FF 3.0 and JSPWiki 2.6.3. I even restarted FF in safe mode (all
plugins disabled).

Example: I have a page 'TestNG' in my wiki. While editing another page I
type '[Test' and the popup window appears with 'TestNG' as the only
suggestion. I've tried clicking on it, hitting 'tab', etc., and nothing
works.

Also, the popup appears waaay over on the left; it would be great if it
appeared over the textarea where it was visible (I didn't see it the first
couple weeks I used JSPWiki).

Am I doing something wrong? I want to make sure I educate my users in the
best way to take advantage of all the JSPWiki features.

As for now, this page doesn't exist... what happened?

AFAIK these entries are only clickable as of version 2.7.0-svn-?.

I've just been testing this on www.jspwiki.org, which runs a 2.6
version, too. FF3 shows up with an unclickable list as you describe,
IE7 doesn't show up anything.

The page does exist; it has a space between the two words.

I got this same error at first.

Plse try again. There was something wrong with the page name.

You can test it on the sandbox jspwiki, it has the latest version.
