Thanks to everyone’s contribution to this thread. Ran into this issue while QA a site. I have just updated to the latest build 2008.08.29.

Now I received a Javascript error when I try to edit a weblog entry and wonder if it is due to the new fix.

document.getElementById(“comment_expiration_date”) has no properties http://localhost/ee/adminz/index.php?S=157e08854ff26fefd1a0e2fdca887b39330e87d8&C=edit&M=edit_entry&weblog_id=2&entry_id=93 Line 1836

The weblog is configured to not allow comments. Turn “Allow comments in this weblog” to “Yes” appears to get rid of the error.

If there is a quick fix, please post it here.

Just a quick note to say I was having the same issue, and updating to 1.6.6 fixed it.

I’m using version 1.6.6 and I’m TinyMCE is not appearing for me in IE 7. I also noticed that on the edit page where it is not appearing, there is a HUGE horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the screen and the Preview Quick Save and Update buttons are WAY to the right…

Any ideas?

Adro,

Did you upgrade from a previous EE version, or is this your first install? Also, are you using LG Tiny MCE?

This was a fresh install of 1.6.6, not an upgrade. I’ve tested with both and get the same result. Doesn’t show up in IE and I can see all the html tags in the text area field.

Most problems with TinyMCE can be traced back to an error in the config code. One missing comma, single quote, etc. can hose the whole thing.

If you’re not using the LG TinyMCE version I suggest switching to that first.

In any case, put your TinyMCE config code in a color-coding text editor and scour each line for errors.

I can post mine if you want something to start with.

TinyMCE displays fine in Firefox but refuses to load in IE7. Have we done something wrong with the code below?

We are using ExpressionEngine v 1.6.6

mode : "textareas",

theme : "advanced",

// Theme options
theme_advanced_buttons1 : "formatselect,bullist,numlist,link,unlink,bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,anchor,image,|,cut,copy,paste,pastetext,pasteword,|,search,replace,undo,redo",
theme_advanced_buttons2 : "",
theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
theme_advanced_buttons4 : "",

theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom",
theme_advanced_resizing : true,

Thanks in advance for any help given.

We have tried using the LG TinyMCE extension and the Tiny MCE Extension for EE but the TinyMCE editor is still not working in IE7, but does so in other browsers like Firefox.

Any help to get it working in IE7 would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
