extending table inside rich text editor plugin

Ah, first of it looks like you have two items with the same id there (width and width). This might cause some problems.
Also make sure that the other file knows about these items later on. I have managed to sort my table out with some
custom properties just for test. Ended up with this:

//...code <table cellpadding="1" myvalue="66" cellspacing="0" border="1"> //.. more code

I added the following to the tablePropertiesDialog:

editItems.push({ "itemId": "myvalue", "name": "myvalue", "xtype": "textfield", "width": 50, "fieldLabel": CQ.I18n.getMessage("MyValue"), "regex": /^[0-9][0-9]?$/ });

Then i added the following to the TablePlugin (in the default values initiation in the notifyPluginConfig):

"myvalue": "66",

Then the last thing i did was to add the following lines in Table.js (in the transferConfigToTalbe method):

if (config.myvalue) { com.setAttribute(dom, "myvalue", config.myvalue); } else { com.removeAttribute(dom, "myvalue"); }

That worked just fine :)

Good Luck

maybe try to zip or just upload one file, or paste snippets in here if it's not a lot of code

I am uploading the files and it even says 2 files chosen but I do not understand where the files have gone

Hi,

I have attached files as requested.

Is it possible that you could supply some sample code to facilitate the trouble shooting ? :)

Hi,

Just to give you some background we are using cq5.5.

I have copied tableplugin.js and tablepropertiesdialog.js and made a local copy inside the apps directory for my app

the names are customtableplugin and customtablepropertiesdialog.

I have changed the customtableplugin code to refer to the customtablepropertiesdialog file. Inside the customtablepropertiesdialog file I have added the 2 new properties table name and category name. When I click on the table inside the rich text editor I can see the dialog come up with my 2 new fields along with the existing fields like number of rows and number of columns. However when I submit the dialog I can see inside firebug that the post does not contain my 2 new fields.

I do not have the sample.  What are the properties you are trying to add? What exact change you have done so far?  In the firebox are you seeing the addition properties are passed on POST request?
