Not working for me on Drupal 6.8 with DHTML menus and Taxonomy Menu

Using Content Type (/admin/content/types) I have created a new content type.
Using Taxonomy I have created a vocabulary for the above mentioned content type.
Using Taxonomy Menu I have set this vocabulary to show in a DHTML menu.
Using Views I have created a view (Page with URL) to show all the content from the vocabulary above inside a table in a URL.
I want to show the page created with Views every time I click in a link pointing to the upper level of the vocabulary or every time I click in a link pointing to an element from the vocabulary (either way would work for me).
I've installed Taxonomy Redirect and navigated to admin/build/taxonomy_redirect.
I've selected the vocabulary, filter: Plain text and I've entered the path to the page I created before using Views.
Everything looks perfect, the redirect shows as created but it does not work.
I comes to my attention that the link under View in Editor "load into editor" points to the root of my site (it seems that something is wrong).
I have emptied the Drupal's cache, I have checked that all my modules are up to date and I made sure that www.mysite.com/update.php shows that no update is required.
Not sure whether I'm missing something or it is some bug or some sort of module incompatibility.
Help please.

In the past the taxonomy menu module has not worked with taxonomy redirect (as you can see from Itangalo's comment and from this issue - http://drupal.org/node/126096) but when I tried taxonomy menu 6.x-2.0 it did seem to work straight away.
If it is not working with taxonomy redirect though it will be fixable by patching taxonomy menu to have an options to use taxonomy redirect on its links.
So the best way to fix your problem would be to post an issue on the taxonomy menu issue queue.
"I comes to my attention that the link under View in Editor "load into editor" points to the root of my site (it seems that something is wrong)."
-- This is how it is supposed to work. The link does not actually direct you to the new page (root) as it just runs some javescript for the onclick event and then returns false so you don't get redirected to the links url.

Solution:
Taxonomy menu will work with taxonomy redirect.
The problem is that unlike most taxonomy redirect links that are redirected as the page loads, taxonomy redirect works on taxonomy menu links when the taxonomy menu is created.
So all you have to do is create your taxonomy redirect rules and then go to admin/content/taxonomy/edit/vocabulary/[vid] check the 'Select to rebuild the menu on submit.' checkbox and then click save.
Your taxonomy menu will be rebuilt with the new taxonomy redirects.
