5.18.2 Contributor Editor

After you choose to edit a contribution region on a web page, the Contributor editor launches in a browser popup window Figure 5–44 , and you can start editing the content in the current contribution region. Please note that this browser popup window may be suppressed by popup-blocking software, so you must configure that software to allow pop-ups on your site. Also, when the Contributor editor opens, the web browser displaying the original web page becomes temporarily unavailable. You can return to the web browser when you close the Contributor editor. Figure 5–44 Contributor Editor The Contributor interface is very similar to the interface of a word processing program. You can add, remove, and edit text, images, hyperlinks, and more. There is even a list option that enables you to manage simple or complex lists. The appearance Getting Started With Designer 5-41 and behavior of Contributor varies depending on how each contribution region and element is set up in Designer. As the designer of the site, you can set up and modify contribution regions so that the Contributor interface is plain and simple or advanced and powerful. The main editor window contains various elements: ■ Page header , which includes the name of the contribution region being edited. ■ Data file , which shows the content ID of the data file associated with the editable contribution region on the content server. ■ Elements tab , which provides the editing environment for all elements in the contribution region. Please note that all elements in the associated data file are shown, even if only some of them are actually displayed in the contribution region being edited. The other information may be used elsewhere on the Web site, so editing that information may affect other pages on the site. ■ Metadata tab , which shows the content information metadata for the data file associated with the editable contribution region only if the site designer opted to make the metadata available for the contribution region. ■ Contribution toolbar , which provides a set of functions that apply to the contribution region as a whole. You can save or preview the data changes, refresh the current view, open a usage report for the data file, and view the changes made to the web page. ■ One or more editing areas, one for each element in the contributor data file associated with the contribution region on the web page. These editing areas are where you type in your text and format your document. ■ Element toolbars in the editing areas, which provide editing functionality relevant to the type of content you are editing. The site designer controls what editing options are available for each element type.
