When enabled, I get blank pages when trying to add/edit all kinds of content.
The page has a link top-left to "enable rich text editing" - for the rest it is a blank white page. Ctrl+F5 has no effect.

This bug applies to:
- Browser: Firefox 2, 3.01 (IE6 produces a page with the editor enables properly)
- TinyMCE engines: tinymce_2_1_2 , tinymce_2_1_3 , tinymce_3_1_0_1

Corrective Processes I tried:
- Uninstall + Re-install of module, tinymce engine plug-in -> no effect
- Varying various settings -> no effect
- Applying no-cache patch as indicated in some listed issues -> no effect

TinyTinyMCE displays properly in Firefox2,3 with plugin (tested 3_1_0_1)

=> This bug seems to have become visible as a result of recent Firefox 2, 3, updates
( I have an older site where mod1.9 + 212 worked fine)

Conclusion:
TinyMCE Drupal Module 1.9 seems to have become incompatible with Firefox 2,3 :-((

Please do fix this soonest, as this I consider this a "must-have" module for most sites.

Thanks and Good Luck!

I don't know about Firefox 3, but it works just fine in Firefox 2 in my experience -- that's what I use, and I have TinyMCE on a number of sites. Maybe the problems you're having are specific to some particular Firefox extension that you're using?

Using Firefox 3.0.3 on Mac OS 10.5 and Moxie's TinyMCE 2.0.

I'm receiving the same error as described above: A completely white page with only the words "disable rich-text" aligned to the top-left of my page.

This was only happening when editing users originally, so I disabled TinyMCE for user pages. It was also only happening for the admin role - working for all others.

I disabled the module, re-downloaded it AND TinyMCE 2.0.3 from moxie, emptied tables "tinymce_roles" and tinymce_settings" in my database, uploaded the new TinyMCE folder (including module and moxies tinymce folder) onto server, reinstalled it, rebuilt persmissions/roles.

At this point, in Firefox: TinyMCE is not loading for ANY pages or roles - I only plain text boxes. YET, for the admin user the problem I get the same white screen with only a "disable rich text" link.

In Safari and Opera, the pages load fine for the admin user -- no TinyMCE just plain-text, but at least they load.

I believe I've been running TinyMCE 1.9 on this site for some time - and the problem developed recently when I added a new module --- my first guess being the UserNode module -- 2nd being the qedit module. Do you have either of these enabled?

HELP!!! This has broken a production site :( Thanks.

I just redid most of these steps, but now attempted to install new TinyMCE 3. Same result... page is broken and I can't edit anything with TinyMCE.

Given these results - I'm fairly certain that there is a bad interaction between the TinyMCE 5.x 1.9 module and another module I have enabled. Anyone able to offer help on this? Perhaps due to the internationalization modules?

Getting the same error.
Only happens in Firefox
No problems for IE or Safari

Tried on PC and Mac and still the same problem.

I'm using TinyMCE 1.92 with the Spellchecker PHP and ibrowser enabled

Hope some of this helps

Getting this error also with Firefox 3.0.1 on Ubuntu Linux and Firefox 3.0.3 on Fedora Core 8 but not in Opera 9.62.

Using TynyMCE Version 5.x-1.9 with Engine Verision 2.1.3

Older engine (2.1.3) used to fix disable/enable ritch text link issue reported fix here: -

Presently I'e disabled TinyMCE on all affected sites until fix presented.

Tried dissabling Devel module as this was an issue at other times, but not this bug.

Subscribing here, any suggestions welcome.

Also found this issue and patch, which appears to be the root of the problem: -
http://drupal.org/node/235972

Tested this locally and on production server works for my setup:

Drupal 5.2, Using TynyMCE Version 5.x-1.9 with Engine Verision 2.1.3, Jquery update 5.x-2.x-dev.

Tested on Firefox 3.01, more to follow as Alpha testers report back.

Hi All,

Fix for this without updating or testing etc.

  1. Go to TinyMCE in the Admin
  2. Edit the profile
  3. Click Basic Setup
  4. Set Show disable/enable rich text editor toggle: to false
  5. Go to Buttons and Plugins
  6. Enable HTML
  7. Click update profile

Now you can use the HTML to just add text.

Not great, but it works.

FYI,

I had a weird problem after firefox upgraded to 3.x... and I upgraded TinyMCE to 3.x
The windows like insert image or hyperlink would work on IE, but not firefox...

I googled and found something similar for another wysiwyg editor and the fix was to delete the firefox profile... and it worked...

I killed any firefox then ran
firefox.exe -ProfileManager

And deleted my profiles and recreated a default profile, and then logged into drupal with firefox and the popup windows started working better on firefox for tinymce!

Hope this helps others...
