question about styles in (dynamic) MarkUp element

What about using the Remove Paragraph Tag action on the element? That action is very useful (essential, even) when integrating some, if not all, CMS into FW.

That would be perfect, as long as there isn’t any additional text in
the same box that needs to have a paragraph wrapped around it.

I have worked around this particular problem using an Action called
CrowBar. If you want to give it a try, it’s in my repository. Apply
it to an HTML box, select beginning or end, and then enter your code
in the Code dialog. If there is any content within the box, your code
will be shifted in either before or after it, outside of any tags
that might already be in there.

Hey Walter, that’s pretty slick. Is it new?

You know, rolling Weaver’s Remove P Tag action and yours together would be wickedly useful for CMS integration. Make CrowBar a sub-function of RPT which could be enabled as needed.

It’s been around since 2005. I just started working today on a
version that could be put inline, so you could put your markup in the
middle of a block of text and still get the code outside of any P tags.

What I’m imagining is that you could have a paragraph, then a lump of
code that makes a UL, then another paragraph, and not end up with
your UL wrapped in a P tag.

Walter, thank you really very much for this action.
I tried it out, and the result is good, that is to say, my page passes through the validator.
But now I find myself in the same spot as before, my page is not readable by MSIE 6 nor 7.

And very strange that the text does not grow when I enlarge text in the page (Safari 3.0.4, under 10.4.11). I did not have that when the code was in the embedded MarkUp element.

Settings for the HTML box are: overflow visible, but I see in the source

Hope to hear from you

Hans

@Todd

I created an inline MarkUp element with the code in it, and attached TimPlumb’s remove paragraph action to it. No good validation, but the text becomes larger in the browser when enlarging text.

Then I also attached also Crowbar to this element. No good validation.

Then I took away the code in the MarkUp element, and did put the code into Crowbar. No good valitation.

This was my testresult.

Thank you for looking at it.

In the meanwhile (back at the ranch) a lot has happened.

Todd was so kind to help me out with some valuable tips.
I did some experiments, and found the following methode a workable solution:

I used the extension for EE called Simple Translator, to create a multi-lingual dynamic site Forums | ExpressionEngine
and in order to make it work in the FW file that I use as EE template I have made:

  1. inline HTML element, with values for height and width, overflow visible
  2. the EE code element as text in this element, no style attached
  3. Remove-P-tag action to this HTML element.

Result, after processing by Expression Engine the validation was OK, the text grows (as expected), the language code element works fine, and MSIE 7 shows page correctly. (only MSIE 6 makes soup of the FW CSS menu ;~)

Note:
If the HTML box is set to: no width, no height, then MSIE shows nothing, Safari 2.0 shows nothing. Safari 3 shows correct, so does Opera (Windows) etc etc. Quite a lot of difference there.

I do hope this helps others that want to combine FW with Expression Engine. BTW I find the action written by Joe Muscara extremely useful for this purpose. tts - freeway actions

Thank you all for the advise

best regards,
Hans
