Additional Functions

Source

Click on the Source button to view and edit the HTML source for the page. Click on it again to go back to preview mode. (This tool is for advanced users.)

Cut/Copy

Cut or Copy the highlighted content. (Cut and Copy buttons only work in Internet Explorer. For Firefox use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+X to cut and Ctrl+C to paste.)

Paste/Paste as Plain Text

Opens a dialog box where you can paste your text. "Paste as Plain text" strips out formatting such as color, font and text size, and so it can be useful for pasting from another application without unnecessary formatting.

Paste from Word

Copy content from Microsoft Word, then paste it into the HTML editor using the dialog box accessed from this icon. This will retain much of the formatting from your Word document.

Print

Prints the HTML content within the FCK editor window.

Check Spelling

This editor also features a spell checker component which works with Internet Explorer. To download the IE spell checker, click on the spellchecker icon in the FCKEditor menu bar. If the software is not already installed, you will be prompted to download the free software to your PC. Follow the instructions and save the .exe file to your PC. Log out of the system and close out IE browser. Restart your IE browser and go to your page that you wish to spell check. Click on the spell check icon in the editor menu bar and use your spellchecker. Firefox has a built in spell check that underlines misspelled words with a red dotted line.
