Using the latest version of drupal and latest webform module, when I go to edit the body text of the webform it wont let me type anything - if I use firebug to disable the editor, I can write what I want and submit the page - but if I then go back and edit the page the text is gone.

One thing that might help - if I use firebug to show the lower half of the editor (the part you see when your in html mode) - and I click 'Hide HTML' - then the editor works properly - so the problem must be that the editor thinks you are in html mode when the page first loads, until you tell it specifically, even though you aren't.

I don't even know where to start with troubleshooting this so I'll leave it to the pros.

Thanks!

I had this issue as well on a project a couple months ago. I ended up having to rewrite the js that made the fieldsets expandable/collapsible. The fact that the issue is related to that is about as far as I got, I assume it has to do with how the js is appending the whizzywig component into a child element dynamically and some functionality is getting lost along the way. Weird.

Hi,

It is indeed a known problem that the Whizzywig editor doesn't work together with collapsible fieldsets. (see also this issue: http://drupal.org/node/186828).

_derrick: could you perhaps share your solution to get this working (even though it's not really a solution, i'd like to see what you changed to get it working - to have a better view on possible solutions). Thanks in advance

Kind regards,

Sven

Whizzywig 6.x has tested on CCK and work fine with fieldset even on collapsible fieldset. I am not using Webform module but I think Whizzywig 6.x will working fince since I have no problem with CCK.

Please upgrade to Drupal 6 so you can use the advanced feature of Whizzywig ... the Fastest and Smallest editor but feature rich! Now has built-in File/Image Browser and Manager!
