Question

I want to add a format to the TinyMCE Editor for Joomla. It should be a format that displays a scalable graphical box around the content. Since the box must scale with the content, I cannot simply use one background box graphics. Instead, I must use graphics for the sides of the box which then can scale in x and y direction. In order to achieve this, I need to wrap the text into more than one div. Thus, I need a possibility to add a format that wraps the content into these divs. However, it seems that TinyMCE does only allow formats that wrap the content into one HTML element – but, as stated above, I need more than one. Is this possible?

Answer 1

No, this is not possible. You may only define what html element you want to use to wrap the content in. The setting is called root_block_element

tinyMCE.init({
        ...
        forced_root_block : 'p'
});
