Problem with editor - stopped working

Reply Quote

I first instlled the editor and it worked fine (local host and on my domain). I have been busy on other things until now. Now, when I try to use the editor, nothing works. The editor shows up OK, and the button help messages show up when you put the cursor over them, but you cannot click on anything or get an insertion bar. Buttons also to not change color when hovered. Cursor stays as a pointer over the text area. It is as if mouse clicks are disallowed. What can be the problem?

Are you using AJAX.ASP.NET Update Panels? The CuteEditor control is not AJAX-Aware, and what you describe sounds like what I've experienced when I load the CuteEditor into view with a partial-page rendering (Async Postback) instead of a full postback. I don't have a solution for you if you are using AJAX, other than wait for Version 6 with the rest of us.

I mis-spoke. There is a solution, but it involves making the application do a full postback (which means you lose your AJAX responsiveness...)

Can you send a screenshot to me?

No, not using AJAX. I have sent you a screen-shot per your request. Can't click on anything.

Try clear your browser cache and try again.

If the problem still exist, please put a demo online and send the URL to me.

Clearing the cache did not help. I sent you the demo URL - that did not help. I sent you the code generated when I drag the editor from the toolbox to a page - and that (apparently) did not help.

When I first bought the editor, it worked by doing that - no problem. No changes to properties, and it basically worked. Now it does not. Still need help finding what is wrong.

Can you try the following code?

<%@ Page Language="C#"%>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="CE" Namespace="CuteEditor" Assembly="CuteEditor" %>
<html>
<body>
<form runat="server" ID="Form1">
<CE:Editor id="Editor1" runat="server" ></CE:Editor>
</form>
</body>
</html>
