[Xerte-dev] Re: selecting embed code in the project details panel

[Julian Tenney]

I may not know what I'm doing but if I create a decision tree project, add an information step and add an image through the text editor, I see no image on preview. I don't know the template very well though so I might be doing something daft.

Tom and John have both replied via github - removed and committed.

Can you reproduce issue #361? https://github.com/thexerteproject/xerteonlinetoolkits/issues/361

I can't but may be misunderstanding the steps John describes.

Can reproduce it here as well. I don't see why removing the return false should cause an issue - but I didn't put it there to begin with,  so also suspect that it does serve some purpose. If you remove it it still works fine in the other browsers? I'd say go for it, I don't think it can affect anything else,

Hi
I added this as an issue on github this morning https://github.com/thexerteproject/xerteonlinetoolkits/issues/362
In IE10 and 11 the embed code box in the project details pane doesn't allow selection either by single click or by click and drag or by right click select all. So the embed code can't be selected from that panel at the moment.
In Chrome I can click and drag to select the embed code and then copy it so that works but right click select all doesn't.
In Firefox, initial single click, drag to select all and right click select all - all these methods work.

With a bit of searching and John's pointer too it seems this is down to body onselectstart="return false;" in index.php

Does that serve a useful/important purpose? Is there a way to reverse that just for the embed code textarea or iframe?

As far as I can tell removing that from index.php doesn't prevent anything else from working but it must have been there for a reason? Perhaps it dates back to the older workspace prior to the tree view?

Cheers
Ron
