Ok, thanks! Думаю у меня будет много вопросов и заодно подтяну english. :)

No problems. Regarding your question - well I can only suggest you to debug the wmd script in firebug... Unfortunately I don't have the time to experiment on this right now, would be awesome if you could find the answer yourself and tell us :).

Do you have a demo for your project? Just curious.

At this moment it is just a plain install + auto authorization(when running from social network vkontakte.ru) and some minor changes.You can see iframe part there http://four.you-ra.info . After redesign I will test it under heavy load (100k+ unique users per day). nginx+tornado+askbot+?(maybe cassandra)

The simplest fix is by use pagedown

It is modification of the wmd with fixed IFrame problem.

Is there a reason Askbot is not using pagedown?

mether's avatar mether (13 years ago)

The editor has been customized for askbot - to support i18n and some additional functions were added - possibility to enter LaTex, uploading of file attachments... We'd need to port those functions into pagedown first.

If pagedown is actively maintained, might consider pushing changes to it instead of all of these enhancements being only inside Askbot and therefore less visible/benefit to everyone else. Might make maintenance easier going forward. Javascript libraries are way too fragmented already.
