WYSIWYG 6.x-2.1 with TinyMCE
Better Formats 6.x-1.2
IMCE 6.x-1.3
IMCE Bridge 6.x-1.1

When attempting to /add/node/ of any content type, the Text Editor does not appear when using IE-8. I logged out and back in; cleared the cache; restarted the browser; restarted the computer; checked the Better Formats and Input Format settings.

I moved to our other computer that runs FireFox and the Text Editor works fine.

Can anyone help solve this mystery? I don't want to lose the Users that view the web site using IE-8.

Using a lot of .css files? IE can only handle 31 files and will ignore the rest. As the editor's files are loaded last, it might appear as if it's not loaded though it is. Enabling the Optimize CSS option on the Performance page will fix this as it drastically reduces the number of files used by the theme. The editor will still load its styles as separate files, but the total number should get below 31.

Sorry for the late reply. If this doesn't fix it, please look through the other open IE-related issues and the FAQ (linked from project page) to see if something in them might help. If not, reopen this issue and post as much details as you can, especially if there are any JavaScript errors.

I had the same problem and "Enabling the Optimize CSS option on the Performance page" did the trick. I can't believe IE has that built-in. Maybe back in IE 5/6 you can cut them some slack but for IE 7 and 8, hard to believe. I already spent a hour or two trying to fix this. Thanks again for the tip!
