Xinha Here! Firefox Extension

Xinha Here! is a Firefox extension wrapper for the Xinha HTML editor. It enables WYSIWYG editing in any textarea and text box on any website. Xinha Here! opens a Xinha HTML editor in your browser allowing you to edit the data in a WYSIWYG on any website without copying and pasting to secondary HTML editor.
Because the Xinha editor is installed on your local machine rather then a server it is both portable (use it on any website) and fast (files don't need to be transferred over the net). This extension goes great with the SpellBound spell checker extension. I use it on eBay, my WordPress blog, leaving comments on other blogs and forums, anywhere where HTML is accepted.

Installation

Install Xinha Here! v0.16 (help)

Listing on Mozilla Update

Compatibility

Current version tested in Windows Firefox 1.0.6 - 3.5 and Linux Firefox 1.0.7 - 1.5. I've received word that Mac OS X works also. If you've tested it in other versions or OSs please leave a message here.

License

The Xinha Here extension is released under the same license as Xinha which is licensed under the original HTMLArea license. Please look here.

How to use Xinha Here

Place the cursor inside the text area or text box you want to edit.
Right click to bring up the context menu (control + click on Mac).
Select Xinha Here from the context menu.
Edit the text in the Xinha WYSIWYG HTML editor.
Press OK and the valid HTML is pushed back to the original text box.

Known Bugs/Issues

~~Text in bottom bar twitches.~~
~~Work around: when the text begins to twitch minimize the bottom bar (click the separator between Xinha from the web page). Then restore it (again click the separator). The twitching will stop.~~Fixed in v0.12 thanks to Hisateru Tanaka
Right clicking in the bottom bar doesn't work.
Unfortunately I've been unsuccessful implementing the right click in the bottom bar. If you need right click functionality open Xinha in a window.
No Xinha Here! Menu.
There is no menu for Xinha Here other then the right click menu. The right click menu only appears when you right click after placing your cursor in the text area/input box.
Toolbar's tooltips do not work in bottom bar
Work around: minimize the bottom bar (click the separator between Xinha from the web page). Then restore it (again click the separator). Tooltips should now work.
Some toolbar drop downs are obscured by the text box
Unfortunately no fix at this time.
Xinha Toolbar button doesn't work
The Xinha toolbar button only works when the cursor is inside a text entry field. Otherwise the button should be grayed out and disabled. Sometimes the button appears enabled when it is not. This is a known bug.
The edit table feature does not work.
This is a known bug with no work around at this time.
Firefox spell check does not work.
I've been unable to get spell check to work within the bottom bar. Spell check does work when Xinha Here is opened in a new window.

Following my own investigation, thousands of people all over the world get the <a href="http://lowest-rate-loans.com/topics/credit-loans">credit loans</a> at various creditors. Therefore, there is good chances to find a consolidation loan in every country.

It is perfect that we can get the <a href="http://lowest-rate-loans.com">loan</a> and it opens new possibilities.

If you want to buy a car, you will have to get the <a href="http://lowest-rate-loans.com/topics/personal-loans">personal loans</a>. Moreover, my father usually uses a commercial loan, which supposes to be the most rapid.

right click not working for me
On : Mon February 15, 2010, 11:34:25

Was playing around with it and when I right click, program doesn't open at the bottom of the page. But when options set to open in new window, editing window shows.

Guess I'll just use new window option. This is a great addon.

Cannot Modify Image
On : Mon December 28, 2009, 08:11:23

Xinha Here! is an outstanding FF add-on. I can think of lots of places I can use it. Thanks!

The Insert/Modify Image button does not seem to be able to modify an existing image. The URL and other image properties are lost. I am running version 0.15.

Thank you.

It's not so simply to bring a very good essay paper, especially if you are occupied. I give advice you to find <a href=" http://www.qualityessay.com">buy an essay</a> and to be devoid from query that your work will be done by essay writers

Xinha & MAC problems
On : Thu November 19, 2009, 13:28:55

When we use Xinha and a Mac, and paste a Word table into it, the table does not appear, only the text. Do others have this problem also? When we use a PC and paste a Word table into Xinha, the table and text both appear. Also, when we paste from Word is when the question marks often appear. Thanks. Sorry I didn't clarify before.

Table Layout
On : Thu November 19, 2009, 13:21:03

When you use "Insert Table" and choose "Alignment" in the Layout box, none of the alignments work. It defaults each time, no matter what you choose, to the text left aligned in the vertical center of the table cell.

HTML Entities
On : Wed November 04, 2009, 12:33:55

The Hypercubed Editor writes "Umlauts" or "Non Ascii Code", and inserts this in an Textfield. An option to convert the Non Ascii Code to html Entities would be nice.

ExtendedFileManager
On : Fri September 25, 2009, 10:54:39

Hi developers,

Why is there no ExtendedFileManager in xinha here! I've tried to use xinha with xampp, but I cannot save my changes in the textarea, there's only the "saving in progress" bar shown.

Thanks for your help.

kind regards
C. Dark / Berlin

works for me on MAC in FF 3.5.3
On : Thu September 24, 2009, 23:13:56

It works for me. I wanted to edit in Sharepoint. However, it's a pity that when wanting to insert an image, there is no browse facility (common to IE as well, so it's not a step backwards).

Random Question Marks
On : Mon September 14, 2009, 13:53:27

Does anyone else have trouble with random question marks being placed in the text upon 'Save' with the upgrade? We can't figure out what is causing them. In the prior version, special characters caused them but in this upgrade, the question marks appear where there are no special characters. We can go back into Xinha and delete them, but again upon 'Save' they often reappear. Help! We love Xinha! but our users are getting frustrated.

overlay inside tab?
On : Tue September 01, 2009, 06:53:27

Is it technically possible to open the xinha window as inline overlay (using div, iframe or other methods) exactly where the original textarea is. It should be inside the tab, so changing tabs would neatly make it vanish and reappear just as if the textarea has become a wysiwyg editor. If that is possible an automatic "swithc to editor on this url patternamtch" would be cool. Maybe that all is already possible with greasemonkey?

table cell merge
On : Sat August 29, 2009, 16:39:57

A very very simple question :
do you think your plugin help us to write in a faster way our wp posts ?
So listening to me : a very simple cell merge doesn't work....
I create a table with 3 colums but your "GREAT" plugin is inabled to merge more than 2 cells.

Cheers
PS
I was so exiting thinking to safe my time in writing my last post using your plugin but i realized that all think it done if LOST my time and make me feel frustrated...

Re: Xinha Here! Firefox Extension
On : Fri August 21, 2009, 19:53:39

Call me Stupid as it does work in 3.5.2 Folks need to grasp that it works with TEXT BOXES. Think "FORM" with a COMMENT BOX. Put your cursor in the BOX and right click and then you'll find this add-in. The description leads some to believe that it works in any TEXT section of a web site. Nope. I created a page with a text box. I use that page to call this way cool add-in and the save the text created for what project I am working on. NEAT.
