Bug with Chrome

Posted by NRaf on January 29, 2009 at 10:56am

Issue Summary

Hey,

I'm having trouble using this with Chrome. When I try to create a node, instead of creating the node, the page just refreshing and stays at the create page. I disabled the text editor and it worked correctly so it seems to be a problem with YUI.

Looking at the JavaScript Console in Chrome, the only errors appear to be the following:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < site-url/sites/default/files/yui-2.6.0/build/element/element-min.js?l (line 1)

Resource interpreted as script but transferred with MIME type text/html. site-url/sites/default/files/yui-2.6.0/build/element/element-min.js?l

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Having same or similar problem - not working in Google Chrome - neither saving nor previewing possible.

I can confirm that I am having this issue too..

The page simply refreshes when i click save or preview...so there is no way of creating new nodes in Chrome with the YUI text editor installed.

Any fixes yet?

I can confirm that this also happens in Safari 3.2.1 and OmniWeb 5.8, so WebKit seems to be the common theme here.

Through experimentation and code searching, I found that setting the "Location of YUI library" field at "Administer > Site configuration > YUI common settings" to http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.5.0 results in a working YUI Editor in WebKit. Setting it to http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.6.0 introduces the WebKit bug, while http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.7.0 results in a different JavaScript error that prevents the editor from appearing at all either in WebKit or Mozilla.

Both the client and I are satisfied with YUI Editor's simplicity, but it looks like the code quality leaves a lot to be desired…

I'm using YUI through WYSIWYG and have the library installed on the server. Same issue, cannot create a node with YUI in Chrome. Any solutions?

Yes. See post #4 above yours.

Is this a problem with YUI editor for both 2.6 and 2.7? Or is it a combo of this and the yui_editor drupal module? I don't want to have to revert to YUI 2.5.0 just for the few chrome users who are editing pages.

As far as I can tell, it's YUI itself, though it's been a while since I've worked either with this module or YUI.

It might be best then to consider switching to a WYSIWYG editor with a wider range of compatibility, such as FCKeditor. It seems to be the least bad (not *good,* just least bad) in the dire realm of browser-based WYSIWYG editor components.

I have found YUI reasonably good - a few little annoyances like only being able to insert full path URLs (http://domain.com/x) and embedding images. But otherwise not such a bad editor - as you say in the dire-realm of browser-based WYSIWYG editors. Will be good though when YUI works under the WYSIWYG module.

I expect if this is a YUI editor issue (chrome bug) then it will be discussed on the YUI mailing list. Will check it out and report back.

YUI is available for WYSIWYG now.. problem remains though

Also I really need users to be able to copy and paste from word or a web page into the WYSIWYG editor but it always has disastrous results.

Using http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.5.0 and http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.6.0 didn't resolve the issue in Safari or Camino on my Mac.

Using http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.5.2 did resolve the issue. With 2.5.2 I am able to save and preview nodes in webkit browsers.

@trenttati: thanks :)
Using 2.5.2 worked for me as well!

Replying to track this fix, having the same issue in Chrome with YUI Editor.

I am having this problem using Safari and I don't have any custom CCK fields at all. When entering content into the editor and hitting save the page basically reloads. It submits and then just comes back to the same page again (my create content form) with everything I entered filled in.

When I disable the module it submits fine. YUI / YUI Editor don't seem to be compatible with Webkit Browsers.
