So, I have a CMS that now has multiple sites that it is managing. When there was only one site, FCKEditor could be set up statically now I need to dynamically assign a EditorAreaCSS and StylesXmlPath. The EditorAreaCSS is simple I just pass the correct css file into the config like this:
fckEditor.Config['EditorAreaCSS'] = '../styles/style.css';
The next step was a dynamic xml file for fckstyles.xml. What I wanted to do is to parse the css file for each site and dynamically display these styles in the drop down. So here is what I came up with:
<!---- fckstyles.xml.cfm --->
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=true>
<cfsetting showdebugoutput=false>
<cfsilent>
<cffile action="read" file="#ExpandPath('../Path/To/File/css/display.css')#" variable="css" />
<cfoutput>
<cfset variables.count= 0 />
<cfset variables.styleList = "" />
<cfloop list="#css#" delimiters="{" index="i">
<cfset variables.count = variables.count + 1 />
<cfif variables.count eq 1>
<cfset variables.styleList = i />
<cfelse>
<cftry>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(ListGetAt(i,2,'}'),2,'.') />
<cfif FindNoCase(':',variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(variables.thisClass,1,':') />
<cfif FindNoCase(' ',variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(variables.thisClass,1,' ') />
</cfif>
<cfelse>
<cfif FindNoCase(' ',variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(variables.thisClass,1,' ') />
</cfif>
</cfif>
<cfif not ListFind(variables.styleList,variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.styleList = trim(variables.styleList) & ',' & trim(variables.thisClass) />
</cfif>
<cfcatch type="any">
<!-- fail silently --->
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
<cfset variables.ignoreList = "body" />
<cfsavecontent variable="FCKStyles"><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Styles>
<cfloop list="#variables.styleList#" index="thisClass">
<cfif not ListFindNoCase(variables.ignoreList,thisClass)>
<Style name="#thisClass#" element="div">
<Attribute name="class" value="#thisClass#" />
</Style>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</Styles>
</cfsavecontent>
</cfoutput>
</cfsilent>
<cfcontent type="text/xml" reset="true"><cfoutput>#FCKStyles#</cfoutput>
One of the keys is to rename the file with a .cfm extensions. This allows ColdFusion to process it. Once the file in generating correctly, you simply pass in that path.
fckEditor.Config['StylesXmlPath'] = '#basePath#fckstyles.xml.cfm';
I hope this helps.
