FAQ
Is the default editor still available?
Yes, you can switch between the Ace editor and the default editor by clicking the “Ace” icon.
What syntax elements are highlighted?
Only syntax elements from core plugins and (optionally) LaTeX plugin are highlighted. Content inside <html>, <php> and <latex> tags is highlighted, content inside <code> and <file> tags is highlighted if its language is c, cpp, csharp, css, groovy, html, java, javascript, latex, lua, perl, php, python, ruby, scala, sql or xml.
Which browsers are supported?
We have tested the plugin successfully with Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer 9, Safari and Epiphany. Older versions of Internet Explorer are not supported, a normal textarea is used instead. Opera works but there are some visualization bugs.
How to use a local copy of jQuery?
Starting from version “Angua” of DokuWiki, the included jQuery library is used.
For older versions of DokuWiki, jQuery is loaded from cdn.jquery.com by default. If you want to use your own copy of jQuery disable the loadjquery setting.
