Hello,

I am experiencing a similar problem but only with the Mozilla browser (v.1.7.12). Whenever I go to edit a page, I don't even get any sort of WYSIWYG toolbar. Instead, the editor defaults to a form field where I can edit the HTML tags directly.

Interestingly though, it seems to work with IE (v.6.0.2800.1106).

The "Fiji" install is a fresh install on a 1&1 shared server:
Linux
Apache/1.3.33 (Unix)
PHP 4.4.2
MySQL 4.0.25

I hope that this helps the admins to troubleshoot the issue. And many thanks for a great CMS solution!

Cheers!

I have the same problem. I am running a test version of 0.12 under XAMPP on my localhost. In Firefox the icons fail to load, as does the content, in IE6 it throws up exactly the same page error. Running the older version of CMSMS in the same environment and it works fine.

Hi, I also have the problem where FCKeditor simply doesn't appear at all.  When editing content I just get plain old textareas.  I think I've switched it on everywhere I can find.  Am I missing something?

I'm using 0.12 'Fiji' and Camino (i.e. Gecko rendering engine).  JavaScript is enabled.  CMS is installed in a subdirectory of the root of my site.

Many thanks in advance for any help getting FCKeditor to appear

[Richard Em]

Additional info:  it does work if I use IE from a Windows box.  Unfortunately I use Firefox, Camino or Safari - and it doesn't appear in any of those

Any guesses?

[Richard Em]

Ok, weirdly it *does* work in Firefox (Mac).  But it *doesn't* work in Camino - supposedly a very similar browser (Gecko rendering, heavily based on Mozilla).

Does anyone think CMS or FCKeditor could be that sensitive to the User-Agent string from the browser?

Anyway if I find out why, I'll post here.  Maybe we can officially add Camino support...

There is some selection code in the fckeditor modules that test for certain strings in the user_agent string.

Code: Select all

if(ereg("MSIE", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = true;
if(ereg("Firefox", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = true;
if(ereg("Gecko/20051111", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = true;  //Maybe WRONG

if(ereg("Konqueror", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = false;
if(ereg("Safari", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = false;
if(ereg("Opera", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = false;

This is a very imprecise way to determine the browsertype. obviously the best way is to stick to the standard but this is how it is done now.  I suggest you try first with a user_agent string that matches any of these 'true' lines.

Got the same problem myself. The fckEditorX does not work in my Mozilla browser, but does so in MSIE. I've tested the demo at the fckEditorX homepage, here it shows up in mozilla. I've also tested the demo for cmsmadesimple, the editor shows up here as well. However the latter is probably using an older or another WYSIWYG editor.

For me fckEditor works in Firefox, but NOT in IE!

In IE it does not show up at all - just plain white textareas  - and previously entered content does not show either.

Server is apache and php 4 as far as I know - I use a PC.

I got the same problem finn, using IE I can not even see the content I am going to edit, nor can I see anything to the FCK editor. However switching to FF, and it is like normal, I can edit content, add content, and for sure I can use and view FCK editor.

This is strange, I have used FCK editor for other cms's and never see things like this.
Anyone know how to fix this?

[okparrothead]

Has there been a fix found for this error?

I'm running Fiji 1.2 on Redhat, but the FCKEditor doesn't come up when opened on some machines.

A single Windows XP machine using IE 6, not my desktop but another, and an older Mac Powerbook OS? using Safari.

I can check the Prefs panel and see that the FCKEditor is selected, but it does not work.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
