CKEditor createFakeParserElement: writeHtml is not a function
- by Phil Sturgeon
I am trying to write a plugin for CKEditor that is basically just a iframe with PHP content. The user browses around, selects the video they want and then they click insert.
The problem is that I need to create a "fake element" for this video, as inserting a video directly seems to show up as a Flash object, and we need to make it look a little different.
I have copied together some code from the Flash plugin.js (remember this is all undocumented and uncommented) and so far come up with this:
function insertFakeElement( html )
{
editor = window.parent.instance;
var realElement = CKEDITOR.dom.element.createFromHtml( html );
var fakeElement = editor.createFakeParserElement( realElement, 'cke_video', 'object', true ),
fakeStyle = fakeElement.attributes.style || '';
var width = realElement.attributes.width,
height = realElement.attributes.height;
if ( typeof width != 'undefined' )
fakeStyle = fakeElement.attributes.style = fakeStyle + 'width:' + cssifyLength( width ) + ';';
if ( typeof height != 'undefined' )
fakeStyle = fakeElement.attributes.style = fakeStyle + 'height:' + cssifyLength( height ) + ';';
editor.insertHTML(fakeElement.getHtml());
}
The line "giving me jip" is:
var fakeElement = editor.createFakeParserElement( realElement, 'cke_video', 'object', true ),
It errors here saying:
l.writeHtml is not a function
[Break on this error]
if(o)o.addRules(l);}});})();a.editor.p..."',o,'_text"
The .js file is minified and I have no idea how the source files all fit together so I can't track down the cause of this error.
Does anybody know what I am doing wrong?
