Custom HTML under category descripton

[tmarquespt]

Hello,
 
I'm trying to get a combobox under category-Description field. I have used this code as an example (as it works) but when trying to save on prestashop it gives me an error: "Description field is invalid" It's translated from PT so it may not be accurate
 
code I'm trying to use:
<select onchange="window.location=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
<option value="">Go to page...</option>
<option value="http://stackoverflow.com/">stackoverflow</option>
<option value="http://facebook.com/">facebook</option>
<option value="http://twitter.com/">twitter</option>
</select>
 
I know the above code works as I tried it under Brackets but it might have some code not allowed by prestahop?
 
What I'm trying to achieve (visually) is this:

 

Any hints?

 

thanks

Tiago

So I did found that the issue of not accepting the onchange was solved with this article from Milosz Myszczuk http://mypresta.eu/en/art/prestashop-16/extended-rich-text-editor.html

 

however even if it accepts the code (and displays the combobox) when I select an option nothing happens.

 

Is there anything in prestashop code that prevents this kind of script to work under category->description?

 

can someone help me on this?

so, after much messing around I did manage to do it disabling Preferences->General->HTMLPurifier. (saw this one on an unrelated subject by Vekia)

 

Now I do have the combobox with links working under categories->description with the code from post #1

 

I also tried an iframe pointing to an x.html with the code inside but no luck with the links. Seems prestashop disables links under iframe (or at least I was missing something else).

 

hope it helps someone else.

Hi,

does your code contain JavaScript? I tried to add JavaScript, which simply shows an image, but I do still get the message "Description field is invalid".

you need to extend tinymce editor to make it work as you want.

it's because by default description fields cant contain javascript codes.
