Bold button not working
posted

Hello,

For some wierd reason the bold button is not working in my html editor.  I am using a subset of buttons and adding the control to the page like so:

<ig_spell:WebSpellChecker ID="igSpellCheck" runat="server"><DialogOptions ShowNoErrorsMessage="true" /></ig_spell:WebSpellChecker>
<ig_edit:WebHtmlEditor Width="95%" ID="txtEdit" SpellCheckerID="igSpellCheck" runat="server">
    <Toolbar>
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="Bold" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="Italic" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="Underline" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarImage Type="Separator" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="JustifyLeft" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="JustifyCenter" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="JustifyRight" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarImage Type="Separator" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="UnorderedList" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="OrderedList" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarImage Type="Separator" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="Outdent" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="Indent" runat="server" />       
        <ig_edit:ToolbarImage Type="Separator" runat="server" />
        <ig_edit:ToolbarButton Type="SpellCheck" runat="server" />
    </Toolbar>
</ig_edit:WebHtmlEditor>

When I click bold with some text highlighted, nothing happens.  The source in html view doesn't even change.  All the other buttons function fine.

Thanks

    I figured out the problem.

    The table I was adding the editor to had a stylesheet with a bold font in it.  For some reason this caused the editor to completely ignore the bold functionality.  I tested it using a stylesheet with underline and italic styles, and the same thing happened.  I fixed the problem by reseting the font styles in the cell I was adding the editor to, and now all is happy.
