My textarea is disappearing

Hi,

I've just started to install CKEditor into a web page, but when I refresh the page, my textarea disappears instead of being replaced by the editor.

The fact that something happens tells me that the ckeditor.js file is being found alright and Firebug shows me that there are no js errors.

I've tried everything I can think of to try to track the problem down, but I'm totally stumped now as to what's going on, because everything seems to be set up exactly as the documentation says.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem might be?

I'm experiencing the same issue I think. Have you managed to find a fix?

Hi Bredcrumbs,

It turned out to be a clash between my object.prototype.is_array function and theirs, so I converted it into a standalone function and everything started working properly.

I hope that helps.

Re: My textarea is disappearing

I have just installed the editor and called it up in my project. I have a submit button and when i fill in the editor and submit the form it posts the data to the data base correctly but on page refresh the editor disappears never to return. Does anyone know why. I am new to this so have difficulty in sorting this out. I have several controls with postpack on the page and disappears with any instance of postback. If i can resolve this the editor will be marvellous. Otherwise not.

Cheers and thanks to anyone who can help.

I have discovered the soluion. I had MaintainScrollPositionOnScrollBack = "true" and SmartNavigation = "true"
in my config

<system.web >


<pages maintainScrollPositionOnPostBack = "true" smartNavigation="true"/>


<authentication mode="Forms">
I reset those in the directory config to false. Hey Presto. This works fine for me as that directory holds only user input forms. They are not to Long so maintaining scroll position is not an issues. The screen flashes on submit, but I like that as the users can tell that something has happened. Should you require those switched on you will have to dig a little deeper. Hope this of help to someone out there.

Cheers Kelvin
