Editor is effectively disabled when viewed from Firefox - but works in IE 6

Reply Quote

I just upgraded from CE 4.5 to 5.0 and have noticed that when viewed in Firefox, the input area and all toolbars are disabled. In IE, however, all works fine.

The drop down lists (e.g. for font size) work in Firefox, but nothing else does. Your demo site editor works with Firefox, so I figured it must be something in the config.

I'm not using code to customize the editor (E.g. all config is done through the properties in the IDE or in the config files.

Any ideas?

The user that's accessing the control has the same security - the only thing that varies is the browser being used to view.

Thanks in advance.

Jeramie,

Please try the steps below.

1. Download the version 5.0 again from http://cutesoft.net/Downloads/default.aspx

2. Create a new virtual directory for testing.

3. Clear your browser cache before run the example.

Keep me posted.

I setup a test isolating the edit controls outside of the container ComponentArt Web.UI Multipage Control that they run in in our application and the editors work in Firefox. Based on this, it looks like it might be something to do with a conflict between what the Multipage container control is doing and the CuteEdit control (e.g. style...) that is causing the Firefox issue. I'll spend a little more time on it and get back to you when I resolve.

Thanks for the help...

I've put together a test project that demonstrates the issue. Where can I send it to? I'm sending the same test project to ComponentArt. It's basically as few lines of code as possible to show the behavior. I'm hoping that between you and ComponentArt we can get the issue resolved...

Thanks in advance for the help...

Hi Adam.

I just wanted to check on the progress on this issue. As of our last email, you were chasing down a DOM conflict. Any news?

Thanks in advance,

Jeramie

I'm having a similar issue. This works fine in IE, I get the issue in FireFox. I have a style called nodisplay defined as:

.nodisplay{ display: none;}

When I put this class on the Div that contains the CE Editor, I get a text height of 0

<CE:EDITOR id="Editor4" EditorWysiwygModeCss="../example.css" runat="server" Height="250" AutoConfigure="Simple"></CE:EDITOR><br>

</div>

If I put the display style on the tag directly, it works fine:

<CE:EDITOR id="Editor3" EditorWysiwygModeCss="../example.css" runat="server" Height="200" AutoConfigure="Simple"></CE:EDITOR><br>

</div>

Why can't I use a CSS style sheet??

Hi ceblanda,

Please try add the code below into the page

<script>
function CuteEditor_OnInitialized(editor)
{
editor.SetHeight(100);
}
</script>

That didn't quite work .. I have 2 instances of the CuteEditor on that tab. The first one did no change, the second one the text area did enlarge, but I lost the control icons in the header.
