Thanks

Two more things to take into account:
a) This needs to work for macros too. Indeed we need to save the macro
definition so that when we get back to the wiki editor we get the
macro back (otherwise we would only get the result of the execution of
the macro).
b) The WYSIWYG editor code must be able to read the macro definition
(be it in span or in comments) since the editor should do the
following:
- display some outline around portions of text that are the result of
the macro execution
- allow users to double click inside the outline to edit the macro
definition

Hi,
Since recognizing links to be xwiki links is hard (not even always
possible) we need to add some extra information when we render wiki
syntax content into XHTML (for the WYSIWYG editor for ex) so that we
can convert it back to wiki syntax.
We have 2 solutions I can think of:
1) Using a span with a class value:
<span class="wikilinkplaceholder wikilink"><!
[CDATA[Space.ExistingPage]]><a href="/xwiki/bin/view/Space/
ExistingPage">Space.ExistingPage</a></span>
2) Using a comment:
<!-- startwikilink:Space.Existing --><span class="wikilink"><a
href="/
xwiki/bin/view/Space/ExistingPage">Space.ExistingPage</a></span><!--
stopwikilink -->
Pros and cons:
* 2) allows not generating visible content in XHTML so that if
someone
copy/paste our generated XHTML he won't have to add some CSS rule to
prevent it from being visible. BTW I'm not even sure we can find a
CSS
rule to do that in solution 1) so we might need to have 2 spans as
in:
<span class="startwikilink"><![CDATA[Space.ExistingPage]]></
span><span
class="wikilinkplaceholder wikilink"><a
href="/xwiki/bin/view/Space/
ExistingPage">Space.ExistingPage</a></span><span
class="stopwikilink"/>
* 1) is harder to code since it requires using a SAX2 LexicalHandler,
which btw is not supported by all XML parsers:
"This is an optional extension handler for SAX2 to provide lexical
information about an XML document, such as comments and CDATA section
boundaries. XML readers are not required to recognize this handler,
and it is not part of core-only SAX2 distributions."
It also requires that I make some modifications to wikimodel since
wikimodel currently ignores comments.
Solution 2) seems slightly better to me but as it's quite more
complex
to implement I'd like to be sure that it's the best solution.
WDYT?
Thanks
