While editing an XML box (via the sjsd editor) I have entered some XHTML code

<div id="shortCutPanel" class="image">
		<ul>
						
			<li class="greyPanel" >
				<a href="#" class="panel_child">
					<span class="title">Shortcut</span>
					<span class="desc">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Proin l ibero conse-ctetuer.</span>	
				</a>
			/li>
		</ul>
</div>

Howeverm when I click to send for publishing (or click to view the ezp code I get the error "Can not determin the name for the custom tag" followed by a message saying that the code I entered has been ignored.

What does this error mean? Can it be fixed so I can enter code snippits like this?

I found sjsd.ini and added this code

StartTags[shortCutPanelImage]=div class="image" id="shortCutPanel"
EndTags[shortCutPanelImage]=div

I cleared cached and cleared the browser cache but it still will not allow me to enter 

<div div class="image" id="shortCutPanel">test</div>

Is there somewhere else I need to register this or have I simply done it wrong?

Thanks

I've also added the following to content.ini.append

AvailableCustomTags[]=shortCutPanelImage
IsInline[shortCutPanelImage]=true

Still no joy.

What am I doing wrong?

It seems that I can't put custom styles in via the editor. They display ok in the editor but when I send for publishing or view ezp source it crashes out with the custom tag error.

It wont even take things like <div class="left">

This is vital for my project. Please, is there a way to get this working?

Hi David

I haven't done much with the XML editor so I might be totally wrong here, but I would try it roughly similar to the custom tags in the XML blocks.
http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/reference/datatypes/xml_block#custom_tags

According to this you would have to write:

<custom name="shortCutPanelImage">
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
</custom>

If such editors would work the way I would want them to work I would use custom tags like this:

<shortCutPanelImage>
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
</shortCutPanelImage>

Again - I have not looked at the editor at all - these are just my two uneducated two cents.

I am pretty sure that there are some forum messages about this topic. Unfortunately forum search is down at the moment, so I cannot point you there.

Thanks Claudia, I had decided to go down that route and ditch the SJSD extension.

I now have three questions in order of importance.

1. You can add attricbutes when you insert a custom tag. How do I access these in the templates I've define for the tag.

2. Can I default these attribute names for each custom class rather tahn having the create them each time.

3. CAn I apply a style sheet to the ezdhtml text box to make it appear as it will in the front end?

Thanks for you help

For question 1 I've tried this

 <div id="shortCutPanel" class="lightGray">
	<ul>
		<li class="greyPanel">
				<a href="#" >
					<span class="title">{attribute_view_gui attribute=$content.title}</span>
				<span class="desc">{attribute_view_gui attribute=$content.text}</span>
					</a>
							</li>
							</div>

But I'm guessing that $content is not what I need to use as it's notdisplaying anything.

THanks
