[opencms-dev] editor.jsp strangenesses

[Christian Steinert]

Just to confirm  - I had similar problems. Ghost text seems to appear, 
if the edited files contain tab characters.
I also changed back to the old editor. You can do that in the user 
settings. There is also a file where the priorities of the different 
editors can be controlled, but the name currently evades me - editing 
this file would change the default behavior globally for all users, but 
the setting there would probably be reverted during opencms upgrades.

> I see the strange behaviour with "ghost text" all the time, and I've also noticed the conversion of "&" and other special characters into their HTML entity equivalents. This happens in all versions of OpenCms that shipped with the "smart" editor (the one with syntax highlighting). Very annoying, but if I remember correctly, this only happens when syntax highlighting is turned on. So the few times I write something directly in the editor, I turn it off first. I lose the highlighting, but it's better than being surrounded by ghosts (so to speak :).
