Hi,

I'm stumped. I have tried using IMCE and Ckedor editors with the WYSIWYG module (which work perfectly fin in Firefox or Chrome) but it will not work in to IE9. (havn't tried older versions. Does not work in compatibility mode either..)

Symptoms,

  • I can not click into the text box to edit, almost like its disable or behind a layer.
  • The page content is not show within the edit box.
  • Disabling the Rich Text editor allow access to the content.

I have also tried this with the Garland Theme enabled thinking it was a CSS layering issue with my theme...

Can some shed a bit of light on this?

Thx!

Which version of CKEditor are you using? If it is not the latest one, try upgrading to the latest one. If it is the latest one, try downgrading to a previous version, or see if they have a beta of a newer one. I had this problem with IE 8 when it first came out.

Its a JavaScript issue, some incompatibility between your version of CKEditor (the plug in you downloaded to sites/all/libraries) and IE 9. You might want to check the issue queus at the CKEditor website, as well, for a fix.

I tried other editors and the same thing. But I think your correct, its probably a Javascript issue... No obvious javascript errors but I did just update a whole bunch of modules and a IE 7 issue showed up that didn't exist before.

Iguess I have to back track that path.

I doubt it is an issue between CKEditor and IE9, which have been compatible since already a long time and for several releases.

I would investigate something else on the page that could be bringing this issue.

I'm curious to know. Drop us a comment here if you find out something.

I've tried several other editors all basically have the same issue. YUI displays a 'False' in the edit box.

Truthfully, I am been behind on my D6 maintenance updates... (I've had my reasons) so that will be my next course of action when I have enough time dedicate to it.

Thx.

I wonder if an out-of-date jQuery plugin may be causing this?

Upgrading to the latest D6 maintenance fixed the problem.
