CKEditor 4 not working in Chrome

I can guarantee you that CKEditor works in Chrome. You'd have to give us more information about your setup. If you feel this is a bug, you can post it on our dev site. Try to be as detailed as possible: https://dev.ckeditor.com/

I've downloaded standard and full packages and tested them on Chrome Version 26.0.1410.63. They WFM.

Your error is thrown here: https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor-dev/blob/master/plugins/colorbutton/plugin.js#L22

This makes me think that something is broken in translations for language which is chosen for you. Which one is it? Hopefully not English, because that won't help us :D

I downloaded both version standard and full. Standard (ckeditor_4.1_standard) works fine on chrome Version 26.0.1410.64 m, and full one (ckeditor_4.1_full) not. Editor just does not appear on the screen. 

Have you cleaned browser's cache? I think that you're replacing standard editor with full editor and that's not gonna work if you haven't cleaned cache.

I have a similar problem with v4.2.2 in Chrome when I browse to any of the samples:

1. Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'type' of undefined ckeditor.js:346

  This is the section: if(CKEDITOR.env.webkit)(b.type=="None"&&   Evidently the object 'b' is null.   The samples work fine in Firefox. Interestingly I get exactly that same error from the same section of code from the editor I'm typing this post into on your website, albeit on line 325.   Hope this can be fixed soon.

I am using Chrome too and I haven't seen this error. Unfortunately without a valid TC we are not able to work on this issue. Could you give us more information about how you're reproducing this problem? It would be great if you could do that on http://dev.ckeditor.com.

I had the same problem, fine in IE, failed in Chrome. I had removed all the language files apart from en-gb.js. I added back in the en.js and it's now working fine in Chrome

Hi!
Downloaded CKEditor for the first time - and it doesn't initialize :)
This error occures: "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'options' of undefined | ckeditor.js:659"

Works fine with 'en-au', 'ru', but not with 'en' language. I tried to figure out what's the difference causing this error but seems like files 'lang/en.js' and 'lang/en-au.js' just have slightly different translations, that's all. Also I checked translations in 'plugins/a11yhelp' and 'plugins/specialchar'.

CKEditor package: ckeditor_4.3.1_full.zip
Chrome version: 31.0.1650.63 m

Hi,

I have a similar problem Cannot read property 'options' of undefined ckeditor.js?_dc=1387801326881:627.

What I did: I have downloaded ckeditor_4.3.1_standard.zip, installed it then I did CKEDITOR.inline('my-editable'). I got the above error.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Iulian

I tried several times to install CKEditor in Drupal 7 but this is the error I always get "ckeditor_4.3.1_full.zip does not contain any .info files" Please any help?

I just had this problem as andrew (Tue, 10/29/2013 - 01:58).

I was able to workaround by adding:

if (!b) b=this.document.$.getSelection();

after:

b=f?this.document.$.selection:this.document.getWindow().$.getSelection();

I have no idea as for the cause (I haven't searched what the selection property comes from, or what getSelection() does), but wanted to report the issue. I am on 'en'. Chrome 33.0.1750.146. It is happening on here too. I did not notice the error, until today, although I did upgrade CKEditor a few weeks ago in our development build and have not been using it much, so I'm not certain if it was the upgrade of CKEditor, or of Chrome, that brought it up.

I'm working in the minified code.

In fact, almost all editor buttons are now broken, e.g. the bold button. I just came back to this today after a bug report by a user, unrelated to my post last night.

Ah, it is actually an extension, the one extension I do have enabled in incognito mode - Better Pop Up Blocker.

Specifically these block options it has:

• Text selection intercept
• Javascript context menu, cut/copy/paste, & click intercept

It's not a new version of Better Pop Up Blocker, but it may be affecting only newer CKEditors, or the Google Chrome update didn't play well with the hackery which Better Pop Up Blocker does.

This does not seem to be the same issue that my user had, just a coincidence. I'll tackle that one separately. I suspect it could well be the cause of andrew's issue though, because I don't need my workaround now I disabled these Better Pop Up Blocker options and my error event was exactly his (I'm a programmer so am sure).

The Better Pop Up Blocker is known for breaking a lot of websites, not only CKEditor. You can find dozens of bug reports in the addon comments. Unfortunately it is not maintained any more and its author does not respond.

I am getting the exact same issue in Chrome, but if I download ck with one language(English) by ckbuilder, then chrome run correctly!

Cache need to be cleared to replace old installation.
