Table creates borders that won't go away

I confirm this is a bug and I will try to fix this in next release.

The workaround right now is:
- avoid to use Full HTML, mean you can select "Filtered HTML" then add these tags:
<table> <th> <tr> <td>

I've started using FCKeditor and IMCE instead. If this module is ever fixed, I'm willing to try it again.

I think I found the script you are referring to in modules/openwysiwyg/library/scripts/openwysiwyg.modified.js

Here is my cut/paste after editing (in case I did a typo), but it didn't work.

updateTextArea: function(n) {
// on update switch editor back to html mode
if(this.viewTextMode[n]) { this.viewText(n); }
// Disable WYSIWYG table styles
WYSIWYG_Table.disableHighlighting(n);
// get inner HTML
var content = this.getEditorWindow(n).document.body.innerHTML;
// Renenable WYSIWYG table styles
WYSIWYG_Table.refreshHighlighting(n);
// strip off defined URLs on IE
content = this.stripURLPath(n, content);
// replace all decimal color strings with hex color strings
content = WYSIWYG_Core.replaceRGBWithHexColor(content);
// remove line breaks before content will be updated
if(this.config[n].ReplaceLineBreaks) { content = content.replace(/(\r\n)|(\n)/ig, ""); }
// set content back in textarea
$_openwysiwyg(n).value = content;
},

@#4 are you talking about OpenWYSIWYG Editor or Wysiwyg?

@#5 I did the same and also did NOT work
BUT we are modifying openwysiwyg.modified.js while #4 says

open wysiwyg.js, scroll to about line 1650

(which I didn't find)

Is this still an ongoing problem? I have managed to fix part of this problem but are having troubles when saving to the database.
When in design HTML mode you can see the table borders as expected, In TEXT mode the style tags that shows the dashed #aaa border no longer appears. Took me ages to track that down.

My problem is that when i save its saving the code from the HTML view and not the TEXT view which which contains the correct html code. Can anyone help.

Sorry if that sounds jibberish.

Im integrating this with .net by the way but hoping that someone with better javascript skills can help me here.

As most of these posts on here seem dated i havent posted the code i used to remove the table borders but am happy to share with anyone interested.

I solved it!

On line 2694 there is the following code (if its not this line do a search for "dashed"):
    WYSIWYG_Core.setAttribute(node, "style", "border:1px dashed #AAAAAA;");

Comment it out (put // before it) and oila!

@#11 was your solution committed?

To retain the ability to "see" the table borders in the editor, while allowing for 0px borders in the output, what I did was do a search and replace of the output HTML on the server side, before saving to the database. Kind of a hack, but it works!!!

More specifically, I did a search for:

#aaaaaa 1px dashed

and replaced all instances with:

0px

So, what is saved into the database has 0px borders. The editor, however, always shows the "#aaaaaa 1px dashed" borders for you, even when it reloads the HTML from your database! It's then stripped out again by the search/replace function when you re-save the HTML into your database.

The only caveat to this workaround is if you really DID want borders with #aaaaaa 1px dashed attributes :) I suppose you could put a checkbox elsewhere on the page, to indicate whether or not your server-side code should strip out the "#aaaaaa 1px dashed" style attributes...

Enjoy!
