Item12200: Deprecate EDITBOXSTYLE and EDITBOXWIDTH
Priority: Normal
Current State: Closed
Released In: 2.0.0
Target Release: major
DefaultPreferences has set
EDITBOXSTYLE
to
width:99%
. But IE7 and IE8 work fine with a style set to 100% in a stylesheet. So this preference (introduced 31 May 2002) is no longer needed.
EDITBOXWIDTH
is overridden by CSS (either the skin CSS or the style set by
EDITBOXSTYLE
).
EDITBOXHEIGHT
does still work.
Steps to take:
- Move
EDITBOXSTYLE
and EDITBOXWIDTH
to a section "Deprecated preferences"
- Change the default value of
EDITBOXSTYLE
to auto
- Update the documentation topics that list these settings
- Mark existing tests with the deprecation date

Remember these settings have no meaning
NateditPlugin being the default from 1.2.0 on.

This has already ended up semi-deprecated in 1.1.x, as the javascript settings override the topic settings. Once a user has dragged the corner of an editor window, those settings are remembered in the cookie, and the topic based settings are ignored. This is causing confusion, e.g.
Item12607. I've marked the settings deprecated in 1.1.9.
