Hi All

I use Codemirror as my default editor. When it is used in K2 - the item contents won't save.
Is this a K2 problem or a Codemirror problem?

Hi,

Had the same issue; wasn't saving any text.
Modified the function submitbutton() in: /includes/js/joomla.javascript.js around line 321 so it now looks like:

/**
* Submit the admin form
*/
function submitform(pressbutton){

/**
* @ADDITION - get the CodeMirror index and update the actual element with the same id.
*/
if( typeof(CodeMirror) == 'function' && ){
for (x in CodeMirror.instances){
document.getElementById(x).value = CodeMirror.instances[x].getCode();
}
}

if (pressbutton) {
document.adminForm.task.value=pressbutton;
}
if (typeof document.adminForm.onsubmit == "function") {
document.adminForm.onsubmit();
}
document.adminForm.submit();
}

Excellent thanks Ben

I think I will submit this to the Codemirror people as well as it seems to be a problem with quite a few components. Although interestingly enough it works fine in articles and modules.

Many thanks for that - was quite a headache that one.

ah ben...i see you already sent the fix through to Ercan...nice one.

Any ideas how this edit will affect upgrades?
I suppose one can just take a note of it and apply again if need be.

Hi,

10x for the sugeestion it helped me a lot.

Just a quick note - there is an error in the code which is causing K2 buttons to stop work.
The problem is in:
"if( typeof(CodeMirror) == 'function' && ){"
which should in fact be:
"if( typeof(CodeMirror) == 'function' ){"
