Abstract
Existing tools using in the standard e-learning contents authoring were used a method to provide users contents template produced in advance. In order to use resources of the template in a common web-based authoring tool, there is problem to overcome. If the resource of template is inserted within the contents on the authoring tool, the deformation of the template by the user's input that may occur during the edit process cannot be controlled. In this paper, we propose an effective maintenance method to prevent deformation of the resource of template inserted into any WYSIWYG-based HTML authoring tool by user's discretion. We added a template plug-in that can create the IMS-QTI standard resource in tynyMCE the web-based open source editor of representative examples. And the plug-in for tinyMCE was realized as a module of directly respond to the action of limited user input. So, in response to the action of user's input, the structure of the template can be sustained possibly.
