how to override ckeditor events [migrated]
- by joe
I am new to ckeditor, I have hard time figuring this issue out.
due to my html design; if I try to use the link editor dialog while my ckeditor is maximized, it just doesn't show up, I understand that ckeditor is the top most object in my html page and the link dialog comes underneath it. if now I bring ckeditor to its normal state I will be able to see and use the link dialog.
my idea is to slightly override the link button click event as follows:
if the editor is in full screen mode, bring it back to the normal state. and keep a flag somewhere so that when I close the link dialog, I can decide whether to bring back the ckeditor to a maximized mode again. now this is easy logic except that I do not know how to override the click event of the link button and keep it work as expected.
here's what I have:
$().ready(function () {
var editor = $('#txa').ckeditor();
CKEDITOR.plugins.registered['link']=
{
init : function( editor )
{
var command = editor.addCommand( 'link',
{
modes : { wysiwyg:1, source:1 },
exec : function( editor ) {
if(editor.commands.maximize.state == 1 ){
alert("maximized");
//....here bring back the editor to UN-maximized state and let the link button event click do the default behavior
}
else
{
alert("normal state");
}
//2 is normal state
//1 is maximized
}
}
);
editor.ui.addButton( 'link',{label : 'YOUR LABEL',command : 'link'});
}
}
});
html part to make the exemple work:
<div>
<textarea id="txa">
</textarea>
</div>
TO BE SHORT:

if the editor is maximized, bring it to normal state then show the link dialog.
