112960 - Editor best be done when NotifyDocumentCreated is called, or else I need a NotifyDocumentReallyDone

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[Joseph Elwell]

So I want to set the default text styles in my editorshell based off some prefs.
The correct way seems to be call editorShell's RegisterDocumentStateListener and
in NotifyDocumentCreated I should call editorShell.SetTextProperty("i", "", "");
and other SetTextProperty calls.

The only problem:
When NotifyDocumentCreated is called and I set the text properties, moments
later my properties are all forgotten. Simon says it's likely that some
stylesheets are loaded into the editor after the NotifyDocumentCreated call is
made.

Yes, we are loading style sheets that are required for editing once the page
loading is completed, but NotifyDocumentCreated is called first.
Interesting problem

This problem will go away after I move the style sheet loading into the JS code
as part of bug 124265; I will have more control over the order of things hopefully
the editor's NotifyDocumentCreated listener will finish before any that others
add. If that's not true, I'll supply a method for you to call to be sure style
sheets are loaded first.

Unfortunately, this is going to require rewriting nsIEditorStyleSheets interface.
Changing milestone.

NotifyDocumentCreated and RegisterDocumentStateListener must have been removed or rewritten as they are no longer in the latest code base.

Close as INVALID.
