IE startup focus problem

We have the same problem when using 2.4.2. In the latsest version 2.5 it works in IE like it should.

I have the same problem with version 2.5.1 and IE7. It steals focus even when StartupFocus is set to false when the form has value set to "" (blank). But when value has initial data, it does not steal focus. I have submitted a ticket for this problem.

Not really a good solution but IF oldnotes = "" THEN fckEditor.value = "&nbsp;" ELSE fckEditor.value = oldnotes. It will put "<p>&#160;</p>" which is displayed as a space in then editor. It doesn't automatically steal focus at this point. Also, I have a seperate html cleaner that will get rid of the blank paragraphs upon submission.

I just wanted to follow up with a little more detail since I didn't mention the version I was using. The previous post was based on 2.5.1 and I just upgraded to the latest 2.6B and am still seeing the same problem as described.

I did figure out what my problem was with one of the workarounds. Since I'm using ReplaceTextArea() instead of Create() I had to put the default value in the actual textarea and not use editor.Value = "&nbsp;" which is what I was trying to do. Now the problem is of course a leading space in the editor. I suppose I can delete it when the user clicks in the editor containing only that space. I hope one of the devs can respond to this thread and shed some light on when this might be fixed.

I think my problem relates to this. Everything works great, toolbar is disabled like it should be upon page load. After I click in the text area the toolbar enables correctly, but if I click anywhere else on the page the toolbar does not disable allowing the user to distort the pages html =P. I am using the fckeditor in a table/tab layout. Fckeditor 2.4 Any workaround would be fine. hope it gets solved soon

thanks,
Josh

This has been fixed in FCKeditor 2.5 upwards, so the issue is already solved. The problem comes from the fact that IE allows only one selection in a browser window, despite the fact that the browser window might contain multiple iframes. Even worse, querying for the selection object by document.selection can get you a selection object that does not belong to the document in question, but in the same window. Therefore you'll find FCKeditor 2.4 modifying selections outside of the editing iframe since we didn't check for the selection's document back then.

There should be no easy workaround for 2.4 on this issue AFAIK, but then someone might have come up with a really smart idea to work around that.

I've tried to reproduce the by setting oFCKeditor.Value = "" in sample01.html of FCKeditor 2.6 but that didn't seem to trigger anything. This bug is supposed to be fixed in 2.5 so I'm interested in the reports about the bug still being present in 2.5+. Is there any webpages where the bug is present with a FCKeditor 2.5+ so I can investigate?

Thanks.
