Hi,
in some case pasting html-text into the Visualformat editor (VFE) can be very slow.
This can be related to the VFE trying to retrieve the stylesheet that is refered to in the orignating html page.
What happens is this. Say you copy some text from an html-page that contains a reference to a css-file say '/style/mystyle.css' and paste this into your VFE. VFE will then try to retrieve the css-file but does this by a relative path (e.g. '/style/mystayle.css'). Since the VFE itself is served by the teamsite-webserver the iw-proxy will handle this request and could remap this to somewhere. If this somewhere is then taking a long time to return something OR is returning a long error-page, the VFE will be slow to react on the paste action.
I can not think of a good reason for the VFE to retrieve the referenced css-file and certainly think that trying to retrieve it from
http://teamsite/... instead of
http://original.com/.. is a bug in the VFE. So far, I've had no reply on the Ektron-forum nor from Iwov-support.
Anyway, a simple workaround is available. That is to configure your proxy that it will somehow remap these css-request to a quick webserver.
Hope this will help some of you, when having the same problem.
