PK91392: THE INSERT LINK DIALOG LAUNCHED FROM THE RICH TEXT EDITOR

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The insert link dialog launched from the rich text editor, when
  editing an existing link, does not show current values for the
  link.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• When editing a selected existing link in the rich text editor,
  the current values for the link (target, description etc.) are
  not shown in the 'Insert Link' popup dialog. As a result,
  editing an existing link amounts to recreating the link
  entirely. This is because no information for the current link at
  the cursor location was being passed to the dialog.
  

Problem conclusion

• Code was changed to send and use current link information to the
  dialog. Since, if only part of an existing link is selected in
  the rich text editor, it is difficult to know if the user
  intended to edit the existing link or create a new link with the
  selected text, the following rules apply to be able to edit an
  existing link:
  * To edit an existing link, the cursor must simply be placed
  inside the link text, and no text selected. WCM will find the
  existing link the cursor is placed in, and will edit that link.
  * If any text of an existing link is selected, the 'Insert Link'
  dialog will show no existing values, and will in fact create a
  new link.
  

Temporary fix
