DOM structureWhen considering the styling of Editor, it is important to understand the HTML structure that Editor uses to display its various components. Like the rest of Editor, the HTML that it uses is highly modularised with elements being reused for the various display options Editor presents. This page documents the HTML structure used for each component so you can provide styling information to have Editor match the look and feel that you required. Primary elementsThe primary elements in Editor are those which are reused as part of various display options. FieldsEach field in the form has the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 | < div class = "DTE_Field DTE_Field_Type_{TYPE} DTE_Field_Name_{NAME} " >
< label class = "DTE_Label" for = "DTE_Field_{NAME}" >
TEXT-LABEL
< div class = "DTE_Label_Info" >
TEXT-LABEL-INFO
</ div >
</ label >
< div class = "DTE_Field_Input" >
< div class = "DTE_Field_InputControl"
<input id = "DTE_Field_{NAME}" type = "text" >
</ div >
< div class = "multi-value" >
MULTI-TITLE
< span class = "multi-info" >
MULTI-INFO
</ span >
</ div >
< div class = "multi-restore" >
MULTI-RESTORE
</ div >
< div class = "DTE_Field_Error" >
TEXT-FIELD-ERROR
</ div >
< div class = "DTE_Field_Message" >
TEXT-FIELD-MESSAGE
</ div >
< div class = "DTE_Field_Info" >
TEXT-FIELD-INFO
</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
|
Where: TYPE is the field type (fields.type ). This provides the ability to CSS style fields of a specific typeNAME is the field name (fields.name )TEXT-LABEL is field label (fields.label )TEXT-FIELD-ERROR is field error message (error() )TEXT-FIELD-MESSAGE is the field general information message (message() )TEXT-FIELD-INFO is the field information outline (fields.fieldInfo )MULTI-TITLE is the multi-value label (i18n.multi.title )MULTI-INFO is the multi-value detailed information text (i18n.multi.info ) - only the first of these in the form will be shownMULTI-RESTORE is the multi-value restore button text (i18n.multi.restore ).- Note that only one of the
div.multi-value and div.multi-restore elements will be shown at a time. Neither will be shown if the form is not multi-row editing. - Additionally, this two multi-row DOM information elements are present in Editor 1.5+ only.
FormThe Editor form has the following structure which is used in both the main and bubble editing options: 1 2 3 4 5 | < form >
< div class = "DTE_Form_Content" >
FIELDS
</ div >
</ form >
|
Where: FIELDS are the fields defined above.
HeaderThe form title is optionally used by the main and bubble editing displays to provide summary information to the end user and has the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 | < div class = "DTE_Header" >
< div class = "DTE_Header_Content" >
TEXT-TITLE
</ div >
</ div >
|
Where: TEXT-TITLE is the form title text set by title()
ButtonsThe buttons that Editor can show (buttons() ) have the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 | < div class = "DTE_Form_Buttons" >
< button >
TEXT-BUTTON
</ button >
...
</ div >
|
Where: TEXT-BUTTON is the button text as defined by the label option of the button-options object.... is the repeating button elements, if more than one button element is defined.
MessageThe form message can provide a general overview message about the form to the end user and has the following structure: 1 2 3 | < div class = "DTE_Form_Info" >
TEXT-MESSAGE
</ div >
|
Where: TEXT-MESSAGE is the message text set by message()
Error1 2 3 | < div class = "DTE_Form_Error" >
TEXT-ERROR
</ div >
|
Where: TEXT-ERROR is the message text set by error()
EditingEditor's three editing modes each have different markup that they use for display of the form, with the primary parts (as defined above) reused between the display options. MainThe main editing form (create() , edit() and remove() ) is used to show all of the fields in the form, and has the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 | < div class = "DTE DTE_Action_Create" >
HEADER
< div class = "DTE_Processing_Indicator" ></ div >
< div class = "DTE_Body" >
< div class = "DTE_Body_Content" >
MESSAGE
FORM
</ div >
</ div >
< div class = "DTE_Footer" >
< div class = "DTE_Footer_Content" ></ div >
ERROR
BUTTONS
</ div >
</ div >
|
Where: BubbleBubble editing provides a fast editing for one or more fields in a table. The bubble element is positioned above the elements that were used to activate the edit and has the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 | < div class = "DTE DTE_Bubble" >
< div class = "DTE_Bubble_Liner" style = "left: 0px;" >
HEADER
MESSAGE
< div class = "DTE_Bubble_Table" >
FORM
< div class = "DTE_Bubble_Close" ></ div >
BUTTONS
</ div >
ERROR
</ div >
< div class = "DTE_Bubble_Triangle" ></ div >
</ div >
|
Where: Bubble backgroundWhen bubble editing is shown, an additional element is also added to the document (attached to body ) which is used to providing shading behind the bubble editing display through CSS. It has the structure: 1 | < div class = "DTE_Bubble_Background" ></ div >
|
InlineInline editing provides a fast editing for a single field, inserting the field input into the table directly. The HTML inserted into the cell has the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | < div class = "DTE DTE_Inline" >
< div class = "DTE_Inline_Field" >
FIELD
</ div >
< div class = "DTE_Inline_Buttons" >
BUTTONS
</ div >
</ div >
|
Where: Display controllersEditor has two built in display controllers, which are used to present the form to the end user in different ways. Typically you would want to just use the default CSS for these display controllers, although it can be useful to tweak the styling for your use case. LightboxThe lightbox display controller displays the form as a box floating above the page. It does this with the following DOM structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | < div class = "DTED_Lightbox_Wrapper" >
< div class = "DTED_Lightbox_Container" >
< div class = "DTED_Lightbox_Content_Wrapper" >
< div class = "DTED_Lightbox_Content" >
MAIN
< div class = "DTED_Lightbox_Close" ></ div >
</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
|
Where: Lightbox backgroundThe lightbox display controller will also add a background element to the document (attached to body ) which is used to providing shading behind the lightbox display through CSS. It has the structure: 1 | < div class = "DTED_Lightbox_Background" ></ div >
|
EnvelopeThe envelope display controller shows the editing form as attached to another element in the page - typically the row being edited or the table header. It has the following structure: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | < div class = "DTED_Envelope_Wrapper" >
< div class = "DTED_Envelope_ShadowLeft" ></ div >
< div class = "DTED_Envelope_ShadowRight" ></ div >
< div class = "DTED_Envelope_Container" >
MAIN
< div class = "DTED_Envelope_Close" >×</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
|
Where: Envelope backgroundThe envelope display controller will also add a background element to the document (attached to body ) which is used to providing shading behind the envelope display through CSS. It has the structure: 1 | < div class = "DTED_Envelope_Background" ></ div >
