Firefox PR1 problem (and resolution)

A heads up for everyone who's upgraded to the latest and greatest firefox that just came out... It apparently breaks FCKEditor 2.0 Beta 2.

Apparently Firefox's "navigator.language" call returns an empty object by default (not a string for the language "en") This might be a bug (seems like it) of the newer Gecko engine release used by Firefox PR1, but for now, to fix it I changed the following code in internals/fcklanguagemanager.js.

Change the line:

var sUserLang = navigator.language ? navigator.language.toLowerCase() : navigator.userLanguage.toLowerCase() ;

to

var sUserLang = navigator.language ? navigator.language : navigator.userLanguage ;

// Firefox PR1 (gecko) has NO default language as the default. We'll set it to English.
if (sUserLang) {
sUserLang = sUserLang.toLowerCase();
}
else {
sUserLang = "en";
}

That should make everything work like normal again until this bug is fixed in Firefox PR1.

The files in the _source directory are not the files that are actually used by FCKeditor. You have to either "compact" the files in the _source directory to create the fckeditorcode_gecko_1.js file, or find the code in fckeditorcode_gecko_1.js and change that in the same way as described by nickclku.

I have not tested it but I think you could also disable FCKConfig.AutoDetectLanguage and set FCKConfig.DefaultLanguage to make things work.

The Mozilla team resolved the problem... so in next release (or build if u dare installing nightly builds) this problem should not be there anymore
