Empty element text

When you added new paragraph in Xopus 2 the empty paragraph showed the text "new paragraph" in green. In Xopus 3 this not the case. Is there a generic way to achieve this?

I use the following code to achieve this function:

<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="text()">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<p ondblclick="node.setTextContent('');">
[Your text]
</p>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>

This works like charm. Only you cant get it back when a users has clicked the text... Xopus doesnt reload it automaticly.

We know a lot of people are asking for this. In Xopus 2 it was actually a hack that was working pretty well. Xopus 3 however has a different architecture that doesn't allow for this. We have looked at other ways of implementing it, but it is not easily done in Xopus 3 and the example given above is the better solution for now.

From Xopus 4.0.3 we support placeholders. See: http://xopus.com/documentation/configuration/elements/placeholder.html for more information.

You're right, it does not work. The page does not exist. We will get on it. In the meantime you can check the example from the download. Find examples/simple/config/config.xml for how to do placeholders in Xopus 4. It's at the top of the file.
