Hi there, I've got a weird TinyMCE related problem.

When I create a node, everything works fine. But when I try to go back and edit that node, I see the node-edit form for a second before bring whisked off to an all white screen with 4 links in the upper left that say "disable rich text." When I turn off TinyMCE for nodes, its fine. What is the problem and how do I fix it? It sounds like TinyMCE is having a bad reaction to something, but what could it be? This is a pretty huge problem.

Title: When editing posts, I'm whisked away to white screen with links to "disable rich text" » Same problem here

Exatly the same white screen except there are only 2 "disable rich text."

Ok. Embarassing admission time.

So the problem was that I didn't have my jqueryupdate file in the proper folder. Fixed.

read the jquery update install.txt file and readme.txt file for more information on how to install properly.

in jquery update is a /misc/ folder the contents of that folder must be put in your drupal /misc/ folder overwriting the original files.

Yeah, that was the problem and that was the fix. It was right in front of me, too. I just hadn't visited my status page in a while due to using a custom admin interface...

Nope, I just got this too. It happens on random pages and it def. loads the entire page and THEN goes totally white w/ as many "disable rich-text" fields as there is the ability to create them. I have been and double checked being updated to jQuery 2.0 w/ the correct versions of files.

@test_drupal, that's a very different problem from the one being discussed here. I have no idea how to help you. Sorry.

@btopro - have you checked your drupal status report? (domain.com/admin/logs/status) that's where I diagnosed the problem.

The one thing I can say for sure is that it's a scripting problem. You've got a javascript issue that's causing this. In my case it was not having moved over the js file into the /misc directory. I guess it could be something else for you.

mdgrech,

White page of death is a completely different symptom than the one being discussed here. White page of death is a blank white screen, often resulting (in my experience) from your drupal install using up all the available memory on your server or something similar to it.

This is not a white screen of death being discussed here, its a white screen with a handful of "disable rich text editor" links in the top left.

Question for the group, have you been messing with the Drigg module? I was and think the JS stuff I was asked to do to install it might have been causing the problem.

Okay I'm still having this problem - a white screen of death that says "disable rich text."

If I go into the tinymce editor and disable the ability to disable rich text, then I can see the editor, but it's all messed up. It has a purple background, has all sorts of weird padding problems, etc.

I have verified the following:
Using tinymce module 5.x-1.9 and tinymce version 2.1
Jquery is properly installed and operating (no other errors on status page)
My page template and theme functions include the proper calls for scripts.

This is the same problem as above, although the cause is apparently different.

Same as comment 16. Users without tinymce permissions can edit nodes. Others can't. The edit page loads then goes to the white page with enable or disable link at top left. There is no code when I view page source.

***edit***
found the solution to my issue here:

Crap.

The problem's back again.

This sucks.

And this time it says I've installed jquery properly.

Ugh.

As for Daniel's link in the previous post, disabling tinymce for the profile page doesn't fix the behavior, it just avoids. it.
