Overlib Issue

[brains]

I seem to be having an issue with the Overlib boxes. Some show and some dont.

When I hover over the announcements on the main home page the first announcement overlib can be seen....for the second announcement I get nothing.

For the subjects enrolled into....I see nothing but an empty overlib box for some and nothing for others.

Anyone any ideas?

This problem could appear if your text has some special characters or quotes. Could you provide for me content of overlib boxes? (Usually it's a description of displayed item)

[brains]

If i enter an announcement e.g. a test announcement just containing the word 'test' then the description appears as:

test
\r\n

The HTML code when viewed is:

test<br />
\r\n

This works FINE for the overlib.

However, if i remove the \r\n then the overlib does not work. It's not great having the description full of line escapes.

Any suggestions?

Hi Den

I think I have traced the problem to the WYSIWYG editor - JCE.

It seems to be adding the \r\n characters and additional < \br> tags which are causing the issue.

Anyone come across this before?

As an example the HTML output on the page after using the JCE editor:

onMouseOver='overlib("test
", CAPTION, "Description")' onMouseOut="return nd();">test</a>



When not using the JCE editor:

onMouseOver='overlib("test", CAPTION, "Description")' onMouseOut="return nd();">test</a>

Notice how it breaks the line.

I finally managed to track down the problem to the JCE editor.

/mambots/editors/jce.php

find the line that says:

tinyMCE.init({

Under this add the following:

cleanup : false,
verify_html : false,

Hope this helps others.

May be those options possible to change from admin Back-End? In TinyMCE mambot settings i found the "Code Cleanup" option.

Yes, tried those options but it did not seem to work.
