Where can I find the legal style elements that can be rendered in
xwiki 2.0
? Hi Devs,
When converting office documents into html (before they are
transformed
into
xwiki syntax) lots of style information gets
added into the html.
For an
example :
<p class="western">Text in a <sup><span
style="color:;font-family=;font-size=2pt;">superscript</span></
sup>format</p>
And finally when this is transformed into xwiki syntax, the result
will
look
something like :
(% class="western" %)
Text in a ^^(% style="color:;font-family=;font-size=2pt;"
%)superscript^^(%%) format
The problem with this is, the resulting xwiki document will have
lot's of
(%%) elements which makes it difficult to make modifications in wiki
mode.
And another argument is that content is more
important than style
(vincent).
So, there are three options :
1. Rip off style information.
What is expressible with wiki markup should be kept (headings, bold,
superscript...). No font information, please. I mean like text-align, color and so and so ?
If we have such a comprehensive list, then we can simply rip off
everything
else! I mean, what is not possible to be rendered should not be
kept ...
As I said you can remove all style attributes.
In this case, I don't see a requirement of
presenting a choice to
the user,
isn't it ?
The user should be able to choose whether he wants to import styles or
not.
Thanks
