Having just updated to Firefox 3, I find that the WYSIWYG editors are not showing up in the backend of my CMSB site. Is anyone else finding this or is it an issue just at my end?

Hi Jayme,

I'm running Firefox 3 with no problems so far. Try clearing your cache and reloading the page. If that doesn't work drop me an email at dave@interactivetools.com and I'll have a look.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Dave! As ever your efforts in the service of your fellow geek is outstanding. Thanks to the update to TinyMCE 3.0.10.1 (the latest) I can now surf happily along with Firefox 3.

... now if only you could bring back favicons and the 'open' link in the FF3 download manager... [;)]

Cheers,
J.

I too am running Firefox 3 and having WYSIWYG editor not showing. I followed your instructions to the other post and cleared my cache. But still not showing. A step I am missing?
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve,

I've attached a zip of the latest tinyMce files. Try uploading them to your /tinymce3/ folder and then clearing your cache and reloading again.

Let me know if that fixes it.

Hey,

Had this problem in FF3 aswell, as the new tinymce pack has done the trick.

Thanks
Rob

The update to the editor does help, but I'm seeing some new isues (and my clients are also reporting some).

1 - The updated WYSIWYG editor in CMSB does not always show up on screen in FF3. A forced refresh (Shift-Refresh) does solve the issue but it's annoying.

2 - My clients are reporting problems with pop-up dialog boxes such as the link editor and image manager. They are using FF2 and are unable to see the 'Insert' and 'Cancel' buttons unless they extend the bottom margin of the dialog box.
Also, the 'browse' button on the image manager is missing, and they report seeing source code instead of GUI in some pop-up windows.

I've not been able to replicate #2 on my several FF2 boxes and I'm waiting for screenshots of the source code problem to confirm their description.

Just FYI.

Hi Jayme,

It could be caching issues while the new files are reloaded by the browser. Clearing the cache or just waiting (happens automatically) might fix it. But we'll keep an eye on it. Also, we can keep an eye for TinyMCE updates here: http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/download.php

We're running the latest version right now (3.1.0.1) and they're usually pretty quick to fix things. Let me know when you get some more information or if the problems persist.

Thanks for letting us know!

Hi Dave,

Good suggestions. I'll take these up with the client. In the meantime, this is a screenshot of what they are seeing.

SOME TIME LATER: Good news! You were right as usual Dave. A full cache clearing and FF reboot and we're back in the game. Happy days.

J.
