Hey guys,
I’ve been looking to make Ephox recognize the <audio> and <video> tags in HTML5.
Has anyone here ever added a custom tag? And, if so, how did you accomplish it?
I’ve edited elj_config.xml with no luck thus far.
Thank you all!
We have used <object> tag to embed audio/video in Ephox editor. You may try that to solve your problem.
Thank you! Our thing though is we’re not having a problem but trying to implement a new feature…and use HTML5 tags as well. Thanks though for replying!
Did you find out how to do this? We are running into similar issue with using <video> tag
You should be able to edit your rxW2Ktidy.properties located in your [RhythmyxRoot] add audio and video to the block-level-tags section. After this you should be able to use these tags without tidy complaining. You will also need to add some text within these tags since tidy also strips out any tags that have nothing between starting and closing HTML element tags.
You can also edit your rxW2KserverPageTags.xml also located in [RhythmyxRoot]. To allow for HTML comments <!-- comment -->. You could then edit your template to put those comments between your audio and video tags. I will attach a file with the section that needs to be modified. The only place that needs to be modified is the bottom of the file starting remove generic Microsoft Word “if” wrappers section. Please leave the rest of the file the same.
Most likely you will want text between those tags in case a user does not support HTML5 fully however.
Let me know if this works or you run into any issues.
Kind Regards,
Nick
It would be nice if a future patch would configure tidy to allow all the new HTML5 Elements:
New Markup Element from: http://www.w3schools.com/html5/html5_new_elements.asp
Even though HTML5 is still in draft stage, “modern” browsers do support these new tags.
New elements for better structure:
