FCKEditor and Internet Explorer 8
Since our client has upgraded their web browsers to IE 8 they have started to get javascript errors with FCKEditor when creating and editing page 'Links'

when either creating a new link or highlighting and editing an existing one
when the user hits OK they get the javascript error

Line: 128
Char: 2
Error: Object doesn't support this property or method
Code: 0
URL: http://<url>/CMSAdminControls/FCKeditor/editor/fckdialog.html


Do you wish to continue running scripts on this page?
Yes / No

I have tried upgrading to the latest FCKEditor 2.6.5 but i get the same problem

has anyone else encountered this ??

we get the errors on Kentico CMS 3.0, XP and Server 2003 and IE 8

regards
James

RE:FCKEditor and Internet Explorer 8
Hey Jimmy B,

I see this is a new thread. I am having the same problem with a site that we have. We are thinking that it might be a server setting because it was/is not an issue on our dev server but it is an issue at the clients colo.

Kentico, any comment/help on this?

Thanks!
Amy B

RE:FCKEditor and Internet Explorer 8
Hi,

IE8 browser is not fully supported in Kentico CMS 4.0 and in any version of Kentico CMS 3.x:

http://devnet.kentico.com/Blogs/Martin-Hejtmanek/March-2009/Support-for-IE8-in-Kentico-CMS-4-0.aspx

You can try to run the IE8 browser in Compatibility mode - this should avoid this issue. IE 8 is supported in Kentico CMS 4.1.

Best regards,
Miroslav Remias.

RE:FCKEditor and Internet Explorer 8
hi amy

i end up upgrading to the latest FCKEditor 2.6.5 (in /CMSAdminControls/FCKEditor/)
and then just commented out lines 141, 142

// if ( typeof window.DoResizeFixes == 'function' )
// window.DoResizeFixes() ;

everything still seems to work fine ! and we now no longer get the error in IE8

cheers
jimmy
