Hi,

I'm using the experimental FCKEditor <-> linktocontent combination, which is now working pretty well (Thanks wwalc :))
Both linktomenu and linktonode are working, but it would be nice if you could select some text in the editor and use linktonode and linktomenu to convert the selected text into a link, rather than the selected text being replaced with the the node title or menu item title which is how it works presently.

Ideally both options would be available:

(a) If you had not selected any text in the editor then when you used linktonode or linktomenu the node title / menu item title would be used for the link text (how it works now)

(b) If you HAD selected some text then when you used linktonode or linktomenu the new link would be applied to that selected text

Would this be possible? It would be more user friendly and could be the last piece of the jigsaw (well, apart from http://drupal.org/node/308816 ;)).

The integration of linktocontent with FCKEditor is very useful in my opinion. It makes it a lot easier for non-technical users to create links to others parts of a site. Great work guys.

Any idea if/when this is doable. There only seem to be a couple of minor issues with incorporating linktocontent with FCKEditor and this is one of them. The other that I have found is linktomenu not using URL aliases for the links it generates

As far as I can see, this now works the way you describe. Could you test this?

I've tested Billibob4 is tottaly right, once you made a link, it automatically replace the text that you have selected with the name of the file to be linked to.. Is this being fixed..?? is any patch or module that can fix it..

I'm using :
Drupal 6
link to content 6.x-2.x-dev
FCKeditor 6.x-2.x-dev

Also,

Are you using the taxonomy module to create your content?? can you see the structure of your site when you select link ti content and the choose a vocabulary?? I cannot see any filtered terms in the browser ( I mean with link to content) .
Suggestions??

The plugin will be redone for CKEditor, and this version will get changed. You have to fix it yourself or try to cope with it.
