  • Joomla 1.5x - ensure you are using the latest version
  • If you wish to use HTML Tidy: cURL is required, ensure you are using the latest version of cURL.
  • Compatible Browser: Internet Explorer 6 is not supported

MacOSX

  • Undo: ⌘ Z
  • Redo: ⌘ ⇧ Z
  • Auto Indent: CTRL-I
  • Goto Line: ⌘ L
  • Search: ⌥ F
Windows/Linux
  • Save: CTRL-S
  • Undo: CTRL-Z
  • Redo: CTRL-SHIFT-Z
  • Auto Indent: CTRL-I
  • Goto Line: CTRL-L
  • Search: ALT-F

Configuration

Below is a list of options that appear in Extensions → Plugin Manager → Editor - RokPad.

Parser: The type of parsing languages you want RokPad to use. You can select between:
  • XHTML
  • CSS
  • JavaScript
  • PHP
  • XHTML + CSS + JavaScript
  • XHTML + CSS + JavaScript + PHP
Initial Editor Height (px.): The initial height of the editor frame, given as pixels.

Coloring Pass Delay (ms.): Gives the amount of milliseconds between coloring passes.

Pass Time (ms.): Specifies the maximum amount of time that the highlighter will spend in one shot. Setting this too high will cause the editor to 'freeze' the browser for noticeable intervals.

Continuous Scan (ms.): Configure continuous scanning of the document. When 0, scanning is disabled. When set to a number, say N, a 'background' process will scan the document for passTime (see above) milliseconds every N milliseconds, regardless of whether anything has changed. This makes sure non-local changes propagate through the document, and will help keep everything consistent. It does add extra processing cost, even for an idle editor.

Auto Match Parens: When ON, will cause parens to be matched every time a key is pressed or the user clicks on the document. This refers to were there is a consistency between the opening and closing tag.

History Depth: Maximum length of the undo history.

History Delay (ms.): When nothing is done in the editor for this amount of milliseconds, pending changes get added to the undo history. Setting this lower will give the undo functionality a finer granularity.

Line Numbers: Show line numbers to the left of the editor.

Indent Unit (int.): An integer that specifies the amount of spaces one 'level' of indentation should add.

Tab Mode: Determines what the effect of pressing tab is.

Reindent On Load: When enabled, this causes the content of the editor to be reindented immediately when the editor loads.
