fixing IE + entermode ENTER_BR

CKEditor running on Internet Explorer seems to ignore

config.enterMode =  CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR ;

it always produces new s when the enter key is pressed and when shift-enter is pressed.

I looked inside the enterkey plugin - the enter()-function does not seem to be called in IE. --> problem seems to be somewhere else - so I have no idea where this might be.

Is there a way to force CKEditor to always use when enter or shift-enter is pressed?
Is there a hook which can be used to build a plugin which replaces all (.*) with $1 for IE users?
Or is the only workaround for now to do such a replacement at the server side for IE users?

( This thread seems to deal with a similar problem, but the section mentioned there does not seem to get called on CKEditor 3.1.1 - and I dont get the error message mentioned there. )

Re: fixing IE + entermode ENTER_BR

which version of IE do you use? with IE 6.0 the sample below works as expected in IE 6.0 and FF 3.6:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../lib/ckeditor/ckeditor_source.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="editorSpace" style="position:absolute; top:10px; left:10px; width:400px; height:400px"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var config = {
enterMode: CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR
};
var editor = CKEDITOR.appendTo('editorSpace', config);
</script>
</body>
</html>

Thank you very much - this is the answer!
I am using IETester with IE6-8.

I tested your example in my native IE8 - it works correctly.
Then I did try IETester: it fails for IE6, IE7, IE8 and IE-default.

And when I run my code in native IE8 - guess what - it works correctly!
