disable highlight for inPlaceEditor

Hello,

I''d like to disable the highlight effect on text that''s
embedded in
the inPlaceEditor.  I''ve seen other posts on this idea where
they''ve
suggested modifiying the control.js code.  To that end I''ve found this
bit in control.js..
************
    onLeaveHover: function(ipe) {
      ipe._effect = new Effect.Highlight(ipe.element, {
        startcolor: ipe.options.highlightColor, endcolor:
ipe.options.highlightEndColor,
        restorecolor: ipe._originalBackground, keepBackgroundImage:
true
      });
************

which seems like I could comment that out.

Is that still the generally accepted way to accomplish this?

Or is there a setting, like [highlight = false] - or maybe I could
just add one?

also, the real reason I want this is because on FF2 - if I click text
to open the editor - then I click cancel - the text remains
highlighted, there is no fade.  So figuring out why it doesn''t fade is
the real problem - but my needs are met by doing without the
highlight.

Thank You

Re: disable highlight for inPlaceEditor

What about using transparent?

Re: disable highlight for inPlaceEditor

yes, that worked, thank you

plus it''s noninvasive to the library code,
here''s what I did for reference...

Ajax.InPlaceEditor.DefaultOptions.highlightEndColor =
''transparent'';
Ajax.InPlaceEditor.DefaultOptions.highlightColor =
''transparent'';
Ajax.InPlaceCollectionEditor.DefaultOptions.highlightEndColor
''transparent'';
Ajax.InPlaceCollectionEditor.DefaultOptions.highlightColor
''transparent'';

The only time I see any hint of highlight now is when it''s external
control working on a textarea - but I can live with it.

Without changing the existing behavior, there really isn''t a way to
just flat-out disable the hover effect, however there are a few
options you can tweak to make the hover effect invisible. Take a look
at highlightColor and highlightEndColor (defaults to #ff9 and #fff,
respectively).

Also you can pass in a hoverClassName, which will be applied to the
span (or whatever your element is) when you are hovering over the
control. You might be able to use some additional CSS to target that
case and override any other effects.

As an alternative to modifying the scriptaculous source code, you may
want to look into subclassing the InPlaceEditor or using function
wrapping to apply your changes to the library without corrupting the
code. That way when you update your library, you won''t lose any
changes you have made.

Just pass onEnterHover: false, onLeaveHover: false among the options… 
Those callbacks provide the default hover behavior, which is the 
highlight thing.

You also have a highlight at IPE completion time, which you can disable 
with onComplete: false.

D''oh! Of course you can override all those DefaultCallbacks in
controls.js with options, sorry about the bad advice earlier in the
thread.

Re: disable highlight for inPlaceEditor

Is there a way to just make the fade out fast? I find the highlight
useful, but it becomes distracting due to the quite slow fade-out.

Thanks.

Re: disable highlight for inPlaceEditor

Just override the relevant callbacks in the options you pass the 
constructor with custom versions that use a shorter effect duration.
