HtmlEditorExtender - can't insert links

Question

User-1880235900 posted

hi

I am using HtmlEditorExtender but I have some problems, when I want to add links to my text.

I select some text and click the "Create link"-icon.
It looks fine, but when I save the text and show it Again the text I linked to has got an underscore in front of the linktext, and there is no link.

I save the text in a database. The field consist of this text: 
here is the link _test</A>

As you can see - no link.

I need help to solve my problem. 

Thanks

Hi sixtus,

The following sample is working fine on my side, I could create link in HtmlEditorExtender.

<asp:TextBox ID="txtDescription" runat="server" Width="500" Height="300"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:HtmlEditorExtender ID="HtmlEditorExtender1" runat="server" TargetControlID="txtDescription" EnableSanitization="false">
    <Toolbar>
        <asp:Bold />
        <asp:Italic />
        <asp:Underline />
        <asp:StrikeThrough />
        <asp:Subscript />
        <asp:Superscript />
        <asp:JustifyLeft />
        <asp:JustifyCenter />
        <asp:JustifyRight />
        <asp:JustifyFull />
        <asp:InsertOrderedList />
        <asp:InsertUnorderedList />
        <asp:CreateLink />
        <asp:UnLink />
        <asp:RemoveFormat />
        <asp:Cut />
        <asp:Copy />
        <asp:Paste />
        <asp:BackgroundColorSelector />
        <asp:ForeColorSelector />
        <asp:FontNameSelector />
        <asp:FontSizeSelector />
        <asp:Indent />
        <asp:Outdent />
        <asp:InsertHorizontalRule />
        <asp:HorizontalSeparator />
        <asp:InsertImage />
    </Toolbar>
</asp:HtmlEditorExtender>

Besides, you could try to uninstall and reinstall your AjaxControlToolkit.

Hi

I tried your code, but the result was exactly the same.
I get an underscore in front of the linked text and no hyperlink.

I will reinstall AjaxControlToolkit to see if that helps.

Any other suggestions to solve the problem before reinstall?

Best regards
