Hi,

I've installed the module on my site, and the textarea is not appearing at all when enabling fckeditor for users on IE7. IE6 and Firefox: no problems.
If I use it as a pop up - no problems.

I use the Garland theme - very modified, though.

No error messages as far as I can see - just an empty textarea - HELP!!!

for the record - I'm using it with the 2.3.2 version as suggested. Have also tried the 2.4 version with no effect.

I have now manually applied the patch by stefano73, which causes the editor to appear for a fraction of a second and then disappear again into nothingness - argh...

I encountered a problem like this in IE7. There are no JavaScript errors, just an empty white space. Double-check the CSS and make sure the form element isn't floating (e.g., form { float:left; } will cause this issue).

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for two weeks with no activity.

Here's the steps i used to debug a similar problem.
1. Visit the page that doesn't work and save the source as a html file.
2. put it in your web root directory so the paths to stylesheets are correct.
3. comment out some of the links to the stylesheets using html comments <!-- -->
4. Refresh the page
5. Keep commenting and refreshing until you can work out what stylesheet is causing the error.
5. Save a copy of the stylesheet causing the error in the web root and change the path so that it is the one getting used.
6. Comment out half of the styles and Refresh.
7. keep commenting and refreshing until you find the style rule causing the error.

Hope that helps someone.

I had this problem with the basic theme. I found out that there was conflict with the id "content-inner". Someone else already reported to be conflicting with the id "main".
Try to replace those and all other div ids in your theme with something else (you can delete them all to test), once you found the conflicting one change its name in the html and css and you should be done (with some luck)

I had this problem with the ad novus theme, fckeditor and ie7. I commented out the float: left; line and it worked after that. Thanks to all the tips on this post I found it.

#main {
margin: 0 235px 0 235px;
// float:left;
border: 8px solid #e7f9fb;
padding: 8px;
background:#FFF;
}

Yeah, seems that in ie7, if ANY parent element is floated, FCKEditor will not be visible.
