TinyMCE removes custom attributes

Vote:
 

Hello,

I'm trying to add the HTML 5 sandbox attributes to an iFrame in the TinyMCE editor, except everytime I update, it removes the attributes. I've read how you can get round this in Episerver 6 but when this workaround http://www.frederikvig.com/2010/10/how-to-add-support-for-iframes-and-other-elements-to-tinymce-in-episerver-cms/ is applied it tends to break the editor in Episerver 7.5. Can anyone provide any help on how to resolve this issue.

Many Thanks

Paul

After much searching I've discovered the answer. I found this blog entry by Chris Sharp who explained why this doesn't work in Episerver 7 and how to get round it. http://cjsharp.com/blog/2013/04/15/how-to-add-valid-elements-like-iframes-to-tinymce-in-episerver-7/

Here's the code in case the link doesn't work in the future:-

Extended Valid Elements Code

[TinyMCEPluginNonVisual(PlugInName = "TinyMceExtendedValidElements", AlwaysEnabled = true, EditorInitConfigurationOptions = "{ extended_valid_elements: 'iframe[src|frameborder=0|alt|title|width|height|align|name]' }")]
public class TinyMceExtendedValidElements
{
}

Empty File Handler (for when the script is missing)

public class EmptyFileHandler : IHttpHandler
{
    public bool IsReusable
    {
        get { return true; }
    }

    public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
    {
    }
}

    

Web.Config update

<configuration>
    ... some configuration ... 
    <location path="util/editor/tinymce/plugins">
        <system.webServer>
            <handlers>
                <add name="TinyMceExtendedValidElements" path="/util/editor/tinymce/plugins/TinyMceExtendedValidElements/editor_plugin.js" verb="GET" type="MyEPiServerProject.Business.Handlers.EmptyFileHandler, MyEPiServerProject" />
            </handlers>
        </system.webServer>
    </location>
</configuration>

    

Episerver.Config update

<episerver>
... some configuration ...
<tinyMCE mergedConfigurationProperties="valid_elements, extended_valid_elements, invalid_elements, valid_child_elements" />
</episerver>
