Re: Ckeditor crashes Safari and Chrome on Mac

calling setData resets the iframe that just got focus, and it seems that Webkit isn't ready for that.
you can use simply something like this:

            editor.on('focus', function(e) { e.editor.document.getBody().setHtml(''); });

Re: Ckeditor crashes Safari and Chrome on Mac

I found I could avoid the crash by clearing ckeditor asynchronously using a one ms timer, but your solution is much cleaner. Thanks for the tip!
