[Solved] Â Â Âs appear when pasting from Word

[Ed]

I am completely new to the Rad Editor, so apologies if there is an obvious answer to this question!  I am trying to paste from Word and save the result from the Rad Editor into an external file named "test.html".  I have got this working fine but the output (when viewed in a browser) has the TAB characters replaced with     ...

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Ed

Hi Ed,

Please, see the following forum thread on the subject: RadEditor inserts  before two consecutive spaces.

Thanks a lot, Rumen.  I didn't actually find my answer in this thread but have now worked it out.  For information, the problem was in the line I used to write the content to a file -- a line I pasted directly from the Telerik demo!  In http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet/prometheus/Editor/Examples/SaveInExternalFile/DefaultCS.aspx, the C# tab gives the following example code:

 

protected void Button1_Click1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  //Open file for writing and write content
  using (StreamWriter externalFile = new StreamWriter(this.MapPath(path), false))
  {
     externalFile.Write(RadEditor1.Content);
  }
}

 

For me, this needed to be:

protected void Button1_Click1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  //Open file for writing and write content
  using (StreamWriter externalFile = new StreamWriter(this.MapPath(path), false, Encoding.UTF8))
  {
     externalFile.Write(RadEditor1.Content);
  }
}

I'll post this to the other thread as well, just in case anyone looks there.

Hello Ed,

Thank you very much for the suggestion. We will update the example for the official Q3 2008 release coming next week.
