I want to use some custom keywords in Markdown mode that should be highlighted by Ace. For example, I need to tell Ace that it should colorize
keywords like TODO,
regexps like /COMMENT\.+$/ or $1 in /^list: \[(.+)\]/,
the YAML header (which is not considered by Ace)
However, the file src/mode-markdown.js looks aweful and http://ace.c9.io/#nav=higlighter reads too general to me. Is there a comprehensive way to implement it?
I am looking into this myself, one thing I've done is created a custom mode-mymode.js and hacked at it to add in the keywords and items I wanted to colorize. But I'm in agreement it's an awful looking file.
On the page http://ace.c9.io/#nav=higlighter - they do offer the mode creator, but if you go way down the page.. i think what you are looking for is the subsection on "Extending Highlighters"
The concept of this section is that you basically "add-on" to an existing highlight rule, which should take care of what you are looking to do.

I copy code from VSCode to Quill, it has a nice color scheme. But when I enable code-block, it becomes just dark and boring. Is there any way to preserve original colors?
The colorscheme you see in VSCode is what's called syntax highlighting, and its done dynamically, i.e. is procedural and only "exists" in VSCode as it reads that code and displays it to you in some kind of visual buffer.
Typically, when working with code snippets/markup/markdown and a clipboard which copies and pastes, its pretty much just the text. Code, like this html code you are working with here, is never what is called rich text. Mainly because rich text is already a kind of code! It is something which defines the bold and colored aspects of your text (or image uris, links, etc), that, when you see it in Word or your web browser, it is something that has been parsed as a code and turned into a presentation of formatted text (in a way, the entire history of software and/or application development revolves around this very idea, consider the history of WYSIWG).
For this reason, something like html markup existing in your IDE which is itself only a "representation" of html markup, would be quite a weird thing that would be complicated to handle, not to mention quite distressing ontologically in coding world.
What you need is something that will reproduce the same procedural syntax highlighting you see in VSCode within css/js within Quilljs, and... your in luck!
https://quilljs.com/docs/modules/syntax/
That seems to be what you need, and you can even configure it to the exact colors you like in VSCode with some patience. (Quill is using the highlight.js library internally, as the module description page notes, so thats why the config link is pointing to those docs.)
I am new here.
Just want to ask several question to anyone experienced in this field.
So I have just bought a php website, and the case is that the owner of this theme seems a bit strict with copyright stuff, so he placed his own identity in almost every way.
In example, the website named "mcdonalds", he have almost in his entire css class after his name/brand, example .mcdonalds_header , or .mcdonalds_style.css , etc .
Now my question is,
Is it possible to change entire css class dynamically?
I meant, if I open it through text editor maybe I could replace them all by hitting Ctrl+H and replace "mcdonalds_" with [nothing].But of course it will return many errors as the entire php and js file are associated with those class.
What I want in example I have
index.php with 8 div have class "mcdonalds_grid"
style.css file with class "mcdonalds_grid"
is it possible to edit the class in css "mcdonalds_grid" to "gridStyle", and then the entire 8 class in the file changed automatically, too?
Because I am not sure to do it manually. In my case I have up to hundred thousands to be edited. It sicks. And if you asked the reason I need to do this, so it looks more professional using my own brand rather than using mcdonald's stuffs.
Any view would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Others have mentioned Jquery.
You could also do it dynamically with Less Mixins: https://www.gaslampmedia.com/mapping-css-styles-less/.
Or you could do it non-dynamically (I would recommend this). You could use an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) or an advanced text editor to search and replace all instances of a text string in the entire project at once. In your case, you could replace all instances of mcdonald with the name of your company or project. Advanced Text Editors like Sublime Text or Notepad++ could let you do this, but you would generally need to open all of the files at once. IDEs like Visual Studio or Dreamweaver would also let you do this, with the benefit of not having to open all of the files (you just add the files to your project).
I personally don't suggest to make these types of edit but if you must need to do then follow the process:
From the answer of the question
You can use IDE to change something in the whole project. I would suggest NetBeans. It's easy. Just add the project to NetBeans, click on edit (in the top left corner) and then click on Replace in project.. ( check in the bottom of the popup)
then
When one enters a question on StackOverflow, just above the text entry box is a set of Javascript buttons to do things like make text bold or italic, and to insert pictures and links.
I want to create a similar set of buttons for my own custom Content Management System (CMS). I was hoping that this would not be the kind of task that I would have to re-invent the wheel for.
However, the only set of buttons I have come across is TinyMCE, which, to say the least is incredibly feature-bloated.
I only need the ability to select text, and then have it be modified to be bold, italic, or a link, using the syntax of my CMS.
After some examination, it seems to me that paring down TinyMCE down to that level would be more difficult than writing from scratch.
Is are an existing toolbox that I can use to help me create these kinds of buttons (or perhaps a tutorial) that is ideally open source and not overly feature rich?
Note that I am not that great at Javascript programming, so while most programmers would probably assume this was easily done from scratch, I need a starting point to see how it is done.
Thank you for any advice.
These are some of the tools like TinyMce , all are open source.
Alternative to Tinymce
Is there a way to create your own HTML element? I want to make a specially designed check box.
I imagine such a thing would be done in JavaScript. Something akin to document.createHTMLElement but the ability to design your own element (and tag).
No, there isn't.
The HTML elements are limited to what the browser will handle. That is to say, if you created a custom firefox plugin, and then had it handle your special tag, then you "could" do it, for varying interpretations of "doing it". A list of all elements for a particular version of HTML may be found here: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/index/elements.html
Probably, however, you don't actually want to. If you want to "combine" several existing elements in such a way as they operate together, then you can do that very JavaScript. For example, if you'd like a checkbox to, when clicked, show a dropdown list somewhere, populated with various things, you may do that.
Perhaps you may like to elaborate on what you actually want to achieve, and we can help further.
Yes, you can create your own tags. You have to create a Schema and import it on your page, and write a JavaScript layer to convert your new tags into existing HTML tags.
An example is fbml (Facebook Markup Language), which includes a schema and a JavaScript layer that Facebook wrote. See this: Open Graph protocol.
Using it you can make a like button really easily:
<fb:like href="http://developers.facebook.com/" width="450" height="80"/>
The easiest way would be probably to write a plugin say in Jquery (or Dojo, MooTools, pick one).
In case of jQuery you can find some plugins here http://plugins.jquery.com/ and use them as a sample.
You need to write own doctype or/and use own namespace to do this.

No, there is not. Moreover it is not allowed in HTML5.
Take a look at Ample SDK JavaScript GUI library that enables any custom elements or event namespaces client-side (this way XUL for example was implemented there) without interferring with the rules of HTML5.
Take a look into for example how XUL scale element implemented: http://github.com/clientside/amplesdk/blob/master/ample/languages/xul/elements/scale.js and its default stylesheet: http://github.com/clientside/amplesdk/blob/master/ample/languages/xul/themes/default/input.css
It's a valid question, but I think the name of the game from the UI side is progressive markup. Build out valid w3 compliant tags and then style them appropriately with javascript (in my case Jquery or Dojo) and CSS. A well-written block of CSS can be reused over and over (my favorite case is Jquery UI with themeroller) and style nearly any element on the page with just a one or two-word addition to the class declaration.
Here's some good Jquery/Javascript/CSS solutions that are relatively simple:
http://www.filamentgroup.com/examples/customInput/
http://aaronweyenberg.com/90/pretty-checkboxes-with-jquery
http://www.protofunc.com/scripts/jquery/checkbox-radiobutton/
Here's the spec for the upcoming (and promising) JqueryUI update for form elements:http://wiki.jqueryui.com/Checkbox
If you needed to validate input, this is an easy way to get inline validation with a single class or id tag: http://www.position-absolute.com/articles/jquery-form-validator-because-form-validation-is-a-mess/
Ok, so my solution isn't a 10 character, one line solution. However, Jquery Code aside, each individual tag wouldn't be much more than:
<input type="checkbox" id="theid">
So, while there would be a medium chunk of Jquery code, the individual elements would be very small, which is important if you're repeating it 250 times (programmatically) as my last project required. It's easy to code, degrades well, validates well, and because progressive markup would be on the user's end, have virtually no cost on the server end.
My current project is in Symfony--not my choice--which uses complex, bulky server-side tags to render form elements, validate, do javascript onclick, style, etc. This seems like what you were asking for at first....and let me tell you, it's CLUNKY. One tag to call a link can be 10 lines of code long! After being forced to do it, I'm not a fan.
Hm. The first thought is that you could create your own element and do a transformation with XSLT to the valid HTML then.
With the emergence of the emerging W3 Web Components standard, specifically the Custom Elements spec, you can now create your own custom HTML elements and register them with the parser with the document.register() DOM method.
X-Tag is a helpful sugar library, developed by Mozilla, that makes it even easier to work with Web Components, have a look: X-Tags.org
I'm looking for a customizable JavaScript script which dynamically highlights code in a block like
<code class="someclass">source code...</code>
It needs to be customizable because the source code is in a quite esoteric programming language (Mozart/Oz). Ideally, I'd just edit some regexes to make it work.
I need dynamic highlighting because it should work in the github wiki which escapes all HTML code within a pre tag.
My Google fu has forsaken me so far...
SyntaxHighlighter might be what you're looking for. It supports custom languages, as well.
jQuery Syntax Highlighter is a new one based on version 3 of Alex Gorbatchev's Syntax Highlighter - a really really really popular plain javascript syntax highlighter.
It supports such things as code and pre blocks, able to use classnames like language-javascript to indicate we want it to highlight, as well as wordwrap. You can copy and paste code by selecting it normally instead of having to open a raw view like many others. It can be further customised by using the HTML5 data attribute data-sh or via specifying options at initialisation. A great stable choice which is updated regularly.
