Switching From Text To Visual

  • OK, so when I enter my codes in the Text editor, the page turns out the way I want it, but all I do is click on the visual tab and it removes all the code I just entered, and I seemingly have to go back and restore a previous revision every time. Why is this happening?

  • Yep, that’s a known (annoying) problem – solution is to not switch between editors.

    To further clarify (as it could possibly be part of your issue), one feature of the editor (TinyMCE) is that invalid HTML will be removed if you switch editor tabs (from text to visual, for example).

    Well, the HTML that’s being removed is obviously valid, since it is doing what I need it to do.

    Well, I mean invalid syntactically ?? I know TinyMCE will delete HTML syntax it doesn’t like. That’s the only time I’ve noticed my own HTML being deleted by switching editors. I have a friend who will only use the CKEditor plugin because he doesn’t like the TinyMCE “quirks.”
