FCKeditor capitalizes all the tags; won't validate

Description

I'm not sure if there is a setting for this?

When I paste plain text into the editor it capitalizes all the elements. For example it uses: P, BR, STRONG, and TEXT-ALIGN instead of p, br, strong, and text-align. Plus, I'd like it to close the br tag, i.e. br / . Is there a way I can make the editor use lowercase instead? Or define that br / and other tags? Right now all the tags I mention don't validate.

I have never seen this before. I can only advise you to take a good look at the settings. Have you changed anything in fckconfig.js or fckeditor.config.js?

I wonder if it has to do with the IMCE WYSIWYG bridge module?

I was going to report this as a separate issue, but my first problem was I couldn't get the "browse server" button to appear. I found out I needed the bridge. But that was strange because I never needed the bridge before?

Second, by default the Full HMTL Input Format has all (or most) of the buttons available, even though none of them are clicked. However, when you install the bridge you have to go to the buttons and check the IMCE box which appears. But then have to check all the buttons now because if you just click the IMCE button the rest of the toolbar disappears. (also frustrating is the fact that the toolbar no longer has the same layout, but that is probably because I've clicked a few different buttons. )

So maybe I should have installed the bridge before I installed the editor?

I am not having this Capitalization problem on any other site, but I also don't have need for the bridge on other sites.

I'd like to bump this up to critical but it's only critical for me! Maybe I should post this under the IMCE bridge module? I have no idea why anything like this would happen and the bridge is the only difference I can think of.

I think you are confusing the WYSIWYG module and the FCKeditor module.

I don't think so? I need all the modules to make it work, including the new IMCE-WYSIWYG bridge module, (which I never needed before). http://drupal.org/project/imce_wysiwyg

Anyway, no different than my text explanation but here is a video of capitalization issue:

Could you give me an overview of your settings panel?

for the Full HTML input format?

Right now only the URL filter is checked. I unchecked all the others trying to fix the issue.

I mean the settings of the FCKeditor profile.

Hey Jorrit. I just posted 5 screen captures of the settings:

I don't think I touched anything here except for checking all the buttons which I had to do after checking the IMCE button.

The screenshots you show are from the WYSIWYG module settings page. You should file an issue with them at http://drupal.org/project/wysiwyg

With some ideas from TwoD at the WYSIWYG module the culprit turned out to be the Teaser Break button. Both issues were caused by it; the capitalization and the missing back slash.

Thanks again for your efforts and sending me to the proper resource Jorrit.
