Characters in IE7
Permalink
I have searched the forum, and the web, and I can't figure out if it's just an IE7 issue, or something else, but when pasting from Word into a content block that contains quotes or aposts, they show as black block characters. I have to go and retype over them to make them show correctly. Any way I can help my client with being able to post from Word, and not doing any adjustments afterwards? PS- I even noted that the html character &bul; shows as that block character too.
I'm pretty sure that's what I used.
That should have worked for you then?
From playing around again, it appears to be an issue with reformatting the text, after you've pasted as "word" into the block (IE, center style). I'll play more to see if I can get more info that would be helpful in this situation. Thanks for replying.
I agree with deladroid, that should solve the problem. There is another button, just to the left—"Paste as Plain Text". Have you tried that button? Both buttons should clear the problem. An old school way I used to solve the problem, before I discovered those buttons where there, is I would paste the Word document into a text editor like Text Mate, Text Wrangler or Notepad+ and then copy and paste into the C5 wysiwyg.
That will work. Unfortunately, I want my client to be able to paste using the word function, so that it looks as close to their word doc as possible. Not the end of the world if they have to paste as plain text and format in the block though... thanks.
Hope that helps.
