  15  <h2>Creating your own Themes</h2>
  16  <p>
  17  Creating you own themes for the TinyMCE application is fairly easy if you know the basics of HTML, CSS and Javascript. The most easy way is to copy the &quot;default&quot; or the &quot;advanced&quot; template and rename it as your own name to for example &quot;mytheme&quot;. After you copy the template you need to change the red sections marked below to &quot;mytheme&quot; this is needed so that themes don't overlap in other words it gives the theme a unique name. Then just alter the HTML code as you see fit but notice some elements needs to be there so check the docs below on each function also remember that your custom themes needs to be located in tiny_mce's &quot;themes&quot; directory. If you want you may add theme specific options/settings but remember to namespace them in the following format &quot;theme_&lt;your theme&gt;_&lt;option&gt;&quot;.
  18  </p>
  19  <p>
  20  The example below has three functions, these are explained in greater detail below.
  21  </p>
  22  <p>
  23  <div class="example">
  24  <pre>
  25  function TinyMCE_<span class="marked">default</span>_getEditorTemplate(settings) {
  26     var template = new Array();
  27  
  28     template['html'] = '&lt;Some HTML&gt;';
  29     template['delta_width'] = 0;
  30     template['delta_height'] = -40;
  31  
  32     return template;
  33  }
  34  
  35  function TinyMCE_<span class="marked">default</span>_getInsertLinkTemplate(settings) {
  36     var template = new Array();
  37  
  38     template['file'] = 'link.htm';
  39     template['width'] = 320;
  40     template['height'] = 130;
  41  
  42     return template;
  43  }
  44  
  45  function TinyMCE_<span class="marked">default</span>_getInsertImageTemplate(settings) {
  46     var template = new Array();
  47  
  48     template['file'] = 'image.htm';
  49     template['width'] = 320;
  50     template['height'] = 130;
  51  
  52     return template;
  53  }
  54  
  55  function TinyMCE_<span class="marked">default</span>_handleNodeChange(editor_id, node) {
  56     // Check what happend
  57  }
  58  
  59  function TinyMCE_<span class="marked">default</span>_execCommand(editor_id, element, command, user_interface, value) {
  60     // Your custom command logic
  61     return false;
  62  }
  63  </pre>
  64  </div>
  65  </p>
  66  <div class="separator"></div>
  67  
  68  <h3>Creating popup HTML files</h3>
  69  <p>
  70  When creating a popup you need to include the &quot;tiny_mce_popup.js&quot; this enables you to retrive the tinyMCE global instance in all popup windows. All variables and language definitions gets replaced in the page when it loads. So language variables such as {$lang_something} can be places in the HTML code, if you need to get a language string in JavaScript simply use the tinyMCE.getLang function.
  71  </p>
  72  <h3>Example of simple popup file:</h3>
  73  <div class="example">
  74  <pre>
  75  &lt;html&gt;
  76  &lt;head&gt;
  77  &lt;title&gt;{$lang_plugin_sample_title}&lt;/title&gt;
  78  &lt;script language=&quot;javascript&quot; src=&quot;../../tiny_mce_popup.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  79  &lt;script language=&quot;javascript&quot;&gt;
  80       // getWindowArg returns any arguments passed to the window
  81       alert(tinyMCE.getWindowArg('some_arg'));
  82  &lt;/script&gt;
  83  &lt;body&gt;
  84       &lt;strong&gt;{$lang_plugin_sample_desc}&lt;/strong&gt;
  85  &lt;/body&gt;
  86  </pre>
  87  </div>
  88  
  89  <div class="separator"></div>
  90  <h3>The TinyMCE_&lt;theme&gt;_getEditorTemplate(settings) function</h3>
  91  <p>
  92  This function is responsible for the layout of the editor instance within the page it should return a name/value based array with some specific names. These are explained below, notice names included in [] characters are optional. The settings parameter to this function is a name/value array containing tinyMCE:s settings/options.
