    TinyMCE and link tags...

    Hi,

    A really silly question - IS IT POSSIBLE TO ADD AN EXTERNAL LINK THOUGH TinyMCE? Or in other words - how do I make TinyMCE leave my HTML alone?

    So quick example. I'm editing the page content in TinyMCE HTML view. I add an "a" tag with href="http://www.somesite.com" and some text in between the opening and closing of the tag. (eg <a href="http://www.somesite.com">http://www.somesite.com</a>;) Then hit Save and Publish button. Result - link is empty. No text, no URL. All gone.

    Is there any way to stop this behaviour? I'm ready to give up umbraco which I've really enjoyed so far just because of this bug/feature.

    Thanks in advance,

    Nick Goloborodko @ Xorbit

    Hi Nick

    What version of Umbraco does this happen on? And what browser are you using?

    And do you know if there have been made any changes to the configuration of tinymce files for this installation? This is not the default behaviour and should work without problems.

    Hi Jan,

    The weirdest thing has happened - all of a sudden it works fine again! I have not made any changes to the TinyMCE config files. What bugs me is: I've tried clearing browser cache and using differnt browsers (chrome, IE9, FF, Opera, Safari - you name it), I've restarted IIS all without any luck - but then in couple of hours, the problem disapears...

    Keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn't come back just as randomly...

    Thanks for your help!
