As an example, in my training I have not found how to make work the HTML filer so if I copy text from one of my web pages, with text color, fonts etc, that it looks the same. I guess, I read that in Drupal 6 there are module editors for doing that.
Hi Jorge. Don't know if this will help: I've got a basic system like the above working in Drupal 7. I disabled CKEditor and CKfinder and just use the CCK tool provided with Drupal core. CKEditor, for me, destroys html markup by adding a lot of unnecessary tags, making the resulting code hard to read and in my case unworkable. I find it prehistoric and unhelpful.
In CCK I have Full HTML selected, not Filtered HTML because I did not wish to alter the filters and Filtered HTML is very limiting.
In CCK, I cut and paste or manually type html code including <img>, <p align>,<ul> <li>, etc.
I find that colors and other markup have to be placed in the appropriate css files -not- in the CCK because they are overwritten by style.css, layout.css and colors.css in my theme. I alter line spacing in the css also. Use firebug in Firefox or <shift ctrl I> in chromium, I don't know the tools in windows or apple.
I'm using a modified Bartick theme for this purpose and once I got the idea of what to do it became far easier and much faster to do html coding by hand. Plus I can have a number of different css text styles, for example: #h2gold {css; font; styling; here;} #h7black {css; font; styling; here;} and so on then call these from the CCK html
Hope this helps, works for me. Roger
