I have tried multiple versions of jquery update ( http://drupal.org/project/jquery_update ) and it seems like ckeditor only works with the very old version 1.1 under other releases... which includes jquery 1.2.6 and is from 2008 !! Ckeditor will not work with the Drupal 6 recommended version, the 6.x-2.0-alpha1 (which includes 1.3.2) or any newer version. Is this everyone else's experience? Ckeditor *only* works with a version of jquery that is almost 4 years old?!?

Hi,
do you see any errors in Firebug (Firefox add-on) ? What do you mean that it doesn't work, it doesn't show or what ? On which browser do you have this issue ?

mkesicki’s picture

I checked jQuery Update 6.x-2.0-alpha1 with CKEditor module (latest DEV version) with drupal 6.22, firefox 4 on windows 7 and nothing bad happens. I don't see any errors or bad behaviour. I tried both options from jquery update ( Production (Minified) and Development (Uncompressed Code) ). Please @plato1123 write more specific what happens in your case .

I also check this and i cannot reproduce this...
Pls list your installed modules here and write which theme do u use...
Maybe another module have problem with compatibility... U could try to disable module by module and check then does it works or not.

Greetings

I'll investigate this further and get back to you gentlemen. Thank you for your reply. I have over 60 Drupal 6.x sites (all running similar add-on modules by default) and on multiple sites ckeditor is just blank if I try any version of jquery_update other than the oldest.

Let me see if I can narrow this down and get back to you.

edit: What versions of jquery should ckeditor work with. Does it work with any versions newer than 1.3.2?

I upgraded jquery server wide and some sites work but on most ckeditor is broken. I installed firebug, it shows the number 2 which I think means 2 errors but am not sure where to check them.

Here's the javascript files that are loading on a broken site:

@plato1123, it should works without problem with jquery newer than 1.3...
When u click Firebug button it will open special window on the bottom of Firefox window, there u must go to Console -> All tab and u will errors on your page... without this it's hard to say where is problem...

JQuery in CKEditor module is only used to add/remove classes and finding specific elements on the site - so it's base functionality of each JQuery which is not changed really long time...

Just a quick note, I notice that if I disable the "album photos" module then ckeditor always works with jquery 1.3.2. On a few sites it works even with album photos enabled. Still digging, will try some of the things in #6 later today when I get a chance. Appreciate it mucho!

Hi,
@plato1123 just try check in Firebug console if you have any errors. If there is some conflict with CKEditor module or other module with jQuery there should be an error. But IMO your issue is related with some conflict with modules that you use. Please write them here an try to disable them one by one and check when CKEditor start works as expected.

Issue is not active over 3 month so i closed it.

If problem still exists pls update to last DEV version of CKEditor module, last CKEditor library and then try to reproduce this problem again. If it doesn't help pls report it and write as much details as u can.

Greetings
