Topic: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

This release fixes an important issue for non western languages that use things like "input method" for entering characters into the editor on IE. We also fixes some minor issues here and there mainly IE issues.

We also added detection logic for iPhone/iPad so that TinyMCE doesn't get initialized on these devices. It's currently impossible for us to add iPhone/iPad support since WebKit on these devices lacks any for of caret within contentEditable areas. Even though this detection logic will keep TinyMCE from being initialized it's recommended to do the device checking on the server side since the main script of TinyMCE will be loaded even though it can't be used.

See the changelog for details.

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

Hi,
I usually like to upgrade to the newest version of TinyMCE in mojoPortal CMS, but had to revert several versions ago back to version 3.2.7 because of issues with the paste plugin, specifically this issue was impacting my users:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=de … tid=635682
I keep trying the TinyMCE demo page after each new release (I assume it runs the latest version), but the problem remains so I cannot upgrade.
There are several other bug reports about the paste plugin also, it seems it changed a lot in the 3.3.x versions. I hope these can be addressed soon so I can go back to always using the latest release of TinyMCE as I did in the past.
For now I'm not having any major issues with version 3.2.7 so I will continue using this version.

Best Regards,

Joe

"We also added detection logic for iPhone/iPad so that TinyMCE doesn't get initialized on these devices"

Sounds like Apple asked you to add this detection code, you should never listen to Apple. Now they will never support contentEditable. I vote: remove this detection and make it a shitty user experience for iPad/iPhone users, this is the only way Apple will ever listen.

alert('Sir, you have a shitty browser');

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

Is there anything new regarding the iPad/IPhone problem?

The tinymce changelog does not tell anything new about it.

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

We changed some internal things to get it to work on iOS a few versions back. However the latest beta has some problems that we hope will get fixed now when the final version arrives.

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

I take it that the iphone problems have been fixed now or is there a new update coming to fix it?

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

We constantly test everything on iOS. Currently it's very buggy not due to our code but the iOS contentEditable implementation.

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

Is it still the case that iOS is detected and tinyMCE is not initialized on the iPad?  It seems like there was a brief window where my users could access my site on their iPad and use tinyMCE, but this is now gone.  Is there a setting to turn off detection?  If no, is there a version I can roll back to, such that tinyMCE works (as best it can) on the iPad?

Re: TinyMCE 3.3.4 Released

Make sure you have the latest iOS. TinyMCE works on iOS5+ on both iPhone and iPad.
