Similar if not the same problem here.
I am trying to set the initial text of the editor to something from the database. The editor resides in a 'hidden' block until the user clicks on something to 'unhide' it. I'll include the example at the bottom.
Works fine in IE, but throws an error in FF. The error *only* is thrown if the encompassing block is hidden. Take the 'display:none' out and we're good as gold.
----Begin Head----
myEditor.Text = [[FromDataBase]]
----End Head----
----Begin Body----
<a href="#" onClick="jsChangeStyleToBlock('DivEdit'); return false;">Show Editor</a>
<div id="DivEdit" style="display:none;">
<CE:Editor id="myEditor" runat="server"></CE:Editor>
</div>
----End Body----
----Begin Error (Thx to FireBug)----
uncaught exception:
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80040111

----End Error----
Edit: Oh, btw, this worked fine before I upgraded us to the most recent version.
