    CuteEditor ASP and IE 5.5: Blank editor box

    Hi
    I have integrated Cute Editor into our ASP website.  It works brilliantly except for a group of users who login from Internet Explorer 5.50.4807.2300 browsers.
    We are using an ASP page populated from an SQL database.
    For all browsers except the MSIE mentioned, this works fine.  On IE 5.5 the cute editor textarea shows blank, i.e. the text is not inserted.
    Also,
    when text is added to the cute Editor in IE 5.5, the contents are not saved to the database. (They appear to be deleted/blanked just as the page is posted.)
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Code used for displaying the database entry
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    dim editor, lsToolBar
    set editor = new CuteEditor
    editor.filespath = "../CuteEditor_Files"
    'editor.AutoConfigure = "Minimal"
    lsToolBar = "g_start,InsertImage,InsertChars,paste,pasteword,pastetext,seperator,find,spell,cleancode,seperator,undo,redo,seperator,Bold,Italic,Underline,seperator,ForeColor,BackColor,g_end,linebreak,"
    lsToolBar = lsToolbar & "g_start,FullPage,seperator,InsertOrderedList,InsertUnorderedList,InsertHorizontalRule,InsertLink,unlink,seperator,table,InsertRowTop,InsertRowBottom,DeleteRow,InsertColumnRight,DeleteColumn,EditRow,seperator,FontName,FontSize,g_end" editor.ShowHtmlMode = false
    editor.EditCompleteDocument = false
    editor.RemoveServerNamesFromUrl = false
    editor.ThemeType = "office2003"
    editor.Template = lsToolBar
    editor.BreakElement = "P"
    editor.activetab = "view"
    editor.width = 490
    editor.height = 150
    editor.id = "txtDescription"
    editor.AllowUpload = true
    editor.text = rsTask("Description")         '<- this is an ADODB recordset
    editor.draw()

    CuteEdit does not support IE 5.5 on all platforms. They probably are on a MAC and yes it does give you a text box. Have them use Firefox or Safari. If they are on a PC and using 5.5 they need to update.

    Thanks I'll give this a try.
    The user is on a PC in a large company and simply cannot upgrade.
    I'll repost with the results of the hotfix.
