Have been upgrading a site to v4.0.1 and almost there now ... just 1 annoying thing left :
When writing some new text in the richttexteditor (set to newest version of tinymce rendercontrol !) , and then hitting the save-button, saves the text with some added "square box" like character (sorry, don't know how to describe it better, but it looks like this : �)
The character gets inserted whenever :
1) I hit twice the enter-key
2) I hit twice the "spacebar"
For example, I got this a a result :
test
�
test� moretest
test
Tested on both IE and FF. Tested on 3 different client sites as well. Always same result.
Quite annoying yes... Anyone has a clue on how to make tinymce behave properly in this case?
I've also had this. I'm using Umbraco v4.0.1. I find in general that TinyMCE does some nasty things to your content when you hit save/publish, especially if you are working with code, etc. I've had the same problem as above with
I'm experiencing the same problem.
I tried toying around with the TinyMce entity_encoding in the TinyMceConfig.config file (way at the bottom). The accepted values are "raw", "numeric" and "named". I thought it would work if I changed it to "named", but no.
So it must be something else...
Besides the square boxes, I also loose my color coding from Word. With out my coding color coded, I loose a lot of functionality. This is not working for me. I hope we find a solution soon.
Tinymce added square box characters
Hi All,

Any help appreciated,

or
so any solution would be great!
Another approach is to use Windows Live Writer. This solution is not always appropriate, but for example if you are just creating/editing blog entries it's great. See here for more details:

There is another post on the umbraco forum about entity encoding, but I didn't find the solution in there either.
Same goes for me: I'd be interested in the answer to this issue.
Thanks,

Indeed,
seems to have done the trick for me :
[i]Changing :
into :
in the /config/umbracoSettings.config file, solved the "square boxes" problem.[/i]
Hopefully this gets changed in the core files, so I don't have to remember this hack whenever upgrading my 10+ umbraco installations ;-)
Thanks all,

Tried what Mike did, and it worked (-:
