Topic: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

This beta fixes a few bugs but also introduces some new features that we didn't fit into the last release.

New flash player
The media plugin has now a new Flash player called MoxiePlayer. This player support mp4 and flv and is used as a fallback player for the HTML5 videos. We will tell you more about this player on the blog later on.

Contextual mceInsertContent command
A common problem has been that TinyMCE would be able to insert block elements like P into P elements and there for producing invalid contents. The new 3.4b1 would later clean that up and split these blocks to produce valid contents. The new 3.4b2 how ever will do this cleanup directly on the container element that you insert the contents to. This also fixes issues with the paste plugin where it would sometimes produce invalid children since it also uses the mceInsertContent command.

Bugs with scrollbar on IE8+
IE8 introduced a bug with the scrollbars since one of our workarounds for another bug would interfere. We have now resolved this issue and there is no longer any jerky scollbars on IE8 or IE9.

Thanks for all bug reports and feedback on the last beta. Feedback is always welcome.

Best regards,

WOW! I'm so looking forward to 3.4 since this is the version I will update my CMS with. I've been waiting since 3.2.6...

Very excited about this release!  HTML5 support, cleaned up media plugin, and new serializer!

Good job, Moxie!  Keep it up.

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

Any chance that a "contentEditable" enhancement is on the horizon?

I'm a *huge* fangirl of TinyMCE, but CKEditor recently ditched DesignMode, and the results are really impressive.  The ability to have true editable regions (inside of non-editable areas) is a killer feature.

Any plans to at least implement that functionality?  The current "noneditable" TinyMCE plugin is pretty fragile sad

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

Maybe we have been thinking of dropping FF 2 support when FF 4 is out. Since FF 2 doesn't support contentEditable. But you should be able to write your own plugin to do this made some simple tests and by setting designMode = 'off'; on the document and contentEditable="true"; on the body element it uses contentEditable mode.

However there are many quirks with contentEditable. We where very much involved with reporting bugs etc to the Gecko team when the implemented it so it could have been worse but both Gecko and IE has issues when it comes to selecting these noneditable regions however the current noneditable plugin also has it's issues.

If you are a developer fork it on GitHub and help us out since this isn't currently a top priority for us.

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

Hopefully yes. We might bring in some code from one of our partners that is pretty extensive but I don't think it will bring anymore bugs. The current GitHub version seems pretty stable and the number of bug reports for the 3.4 branch has dropped.

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

I have to say as impressed with the speed improvement in general as I am, the speed improvements in table heavy editors is even more impressive.  Most of our forms are table heavy and the speed improvements will makea lot of people happy.

Thanks again

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

Hi,

after I have used the plugin "wordcount" the first time today, a little bug was found:

wordcount bug

If you type one word at row, then type return, the plugin doesn't count correct the words.

Best regards,
Robin

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

While using IE9 and console open, I saw IE=7 True mode with comment like:
// IE8 doesn't support carets behind images setting ie7_compat would force IE8+ to run in IE7 compat mode.

I wonder if it forces IE9 to this as well or if IE9 supports carets or not...

Re: TinyMCE 3.4b2 Released

IE9 doesn't have the caret bug so we could probably enable the rendering mode there. I want to test it first on the upcoming RC.
