Version 0.12.1 and FCK editor problems [Only in IE, FF OK]

[trud]

Finally got cms ms installed, and was going to start adding content.
The UI is fairly selfexplaining, so I did not think this part would couse me problems.

However, when I go to
Content=>Pages I excpect to be able to view and edit the content after I click the edit icon. However when clicking the edit icon, all I get is being directed to pagetitle edit page ie Home. I would excpect to see the FCK editor above the content area, but FCK editor does not show, and neither does the content.

I have checked the Extension => Modules  and from here, I can see that FCK editor was installed by default. And it's active.

I have tried to add a new page, give it a pagetitle, menutext put it as child of home, but I can not put in text, nor do I see the FCK editor. If I try to just submit it like that I get an warning saying "No Content given!".

I can not edit any text, tried to edit the footer text but no. So either something is wrong, or I am overlooking something obvious here.

Probably I could change the content from the DB, but that would be drag:-)

In order to debug if this is an Fckeditor issue, I would suggest disabling the wysiwyg editor (temporarily).

Under "My Prefs >> User Preferences", set the wysiwyg editor to "None" and hit submit.  if that solves the problem, then it's something that FckEditor doesn't like about your configuration.

Hm. Could not belive it myself, but this problem appears to be non cross-browser related.
I was using IE or actually Maxthon, but that browser just runs on top of IE so it is the same thing. Later I switched to FF, and guess what, things are working just fine.

I have used FCK editor for other cms's, and have never before seen this IE issue.

Well I will start poking around in the source and see what I can find.

Hm. Cannot figure this one out. I can no belive we are only a few people that has this problem? If that is the case, what can possible cause this?

Today I also checked earlier versions of IE and the same thing happend with them.
FCK editor becomes invisible when trying to edit content in IE. Same goes for the actual content. Which leads be to belive this is not directly reletaed to FCK editor, but might actual be a core problem. Because the framework itself is supposed to deliver the content, right?
And when adding a page, or editing excisting pages, the content are delivered by the core of cms ms, rather then by FCK editor?

Any thoughts on this?

This problem has been discussed earlier at this forum. As I could remember one pointed out that it might be a problem with how FCKeditorX test browser versions. I'd had a brief look at it today, and the I think that this might be correct assumption.

from line 258, in FCKeditorX.module.php :

Code: Select all

$ok = false;

$html_out = '';

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;

When I change $ok = false; to $ok = true; the FCKeditor shows up. This might not be the best way to solve the problem. Perhaps new adding new lines like

Code: Select all

if(ereg("Gecko/20050920", $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"])) $ok = true;

is a more elegant solution. But it might be a reason why the FCKeditor does not want an older gecko engine?
