Rich Text Editor not functioning correctly in Firefox 3

Asked by rot299 in Firefox Web Browser, JavaScript, WebApplications

Tags: , ,

hello

I am having some issues with the release of firefox 3. The issue is with a Rich Text Editor i am using on my Content Managed sites.

The "hyperlink" function only works the first time you insert text. After this, you can no longer add or edit existing links. Its very strange, and only affects FF3, all other browsers seem to handle it ok.

An example of the Rich Text Editor can be found here: http://www.zrinity.com/activedit5/example.cfm

From doing some preliminary research, it seems mozilla has updated the "gecko" file and no longer accepts the output of the ActivEdit editor. I would contact the ActivEdit developers, but they have discontinued their product, although it can still be downloaded.

I have done a little bit of research into the problem, but i am more of a web designer than a developer, so i could only go so far. Below is what i could find:

"DOM:range.intersectsNode" is the code firefox 3 is having issues with, and after some reading, it has been replaced with "DOM:range.compareBoundaryPoints" (see here: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/DOM:range.compareBoundaryPoints)

thanks in advance :)
