no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

i am unable to get the samples to display properly in IE6, running from my local hard drive. Firefox works fine.

tested on IE6 XP with SP1 and SP2 (separate machines), and all that is shown are "red-cross" broken image graphics. the dropdown menus are also not shown.

i've spent the last 2-3 hours reading the forums because i was sure that this would be a common problem and easy to fix. The problem was *very* common, but there were no fixes suggested, except a bugnote closing the bug as resolved, and a hack to the code that unfortunately didn't work.

is this a known issue?

can somebody please help here? please?

thanks.

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

This is one of those "something simple" questions... don't know what the answer is tho.

Common, um, _not really_. =-)

Is javascript enabled?

You'd know if the website demo works. Maybe you have you stuff (security levels/zones/whatnot) set custom? Check if there is an option for allowing javascript from certain sites to run maybe? Clear the cache a few?

Maybe it thinks the .js is a harmful script trying to execute from localhost perhaps? (that's if it runs fine from the web).

Are there any error elerts (those strips accros the top er bottom, with the shield or exclimation point or whatnot?)

FReaking firefox, what a champ. Best to support too IE tho, lest we become the very thing we despise. An evil empire. *cough* sorry.

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

thanks for trying, but right now my IE is wide open, with the lowest possible security settings - everything is enabled, so no alerts, no prompts - a hackers paradise. still no toolbar.

i've also cleared the cache many times.

do you know if the developers monitor this forum? i can't imagine they're not aware of this problem.

yeah...i love firefox too...and i wish IE would just magically vanish, but the project i'm working on has to work in IE...

looks like I'll have to use TinyMCE or something...

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

i gave up. i've tried it on 3 different computers, all with pretty standard configs, and it didn't work on any of them. i'll keep monitoring this forum in case somebody has a solution, but judging by the fact that this problem has been reported by many users for the last 8 months or so without any word, i'm not too optimistic. it just seems a bit strange to me, and unfortunately i just don't have time to debug the code.

also, i didn't save any of the links because i didn't find any useful information - just the same questions asked over and over again with no answers. but try a forum search for "toolbar", or "toolbar AND ie", you'll see what i mean.

well, in 15 minutes with tinymce i made more progress than 5 hours of struggling with fck (kinda makes me wonder what fck stands for). i don't want to start a flame war or anything, but tinymce just seems much better put together. clean hooks for customization, and full, well-organized documentation. unless i'm missing something, it just seems like a more modern top-down design. maybe a few less features than fck, but the design is clean and accessible enough that i can write stuff myself if i need it, without worrying too much about breaking anything - the fck code seemed a bit spaghetti-ish. most importantly, tinymce works in the most current version of the most popular browser.

i also discovered that the html source button in fck crashes firefox...hmmm...i'm running...

do you (or anybody, really) have experience with tinymce or others? why do you like fck? like i said, maybe i'm missing something...

if the developers are listening, and care to investigate these problems, i'll be happy to provide whatever info they might want - they're easily reproducible.

as far as the multiple browser thing goes...it doesn't really matter much, as long as browsers adhere to recommended standards...IE fails miserably on that...

take care.

Have you tried right clicking on the missing images and going to properties to see where it is actually looking for the image?

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

How about replacing the line var sBasePath = document.location...... with
var sBasePath='C:/aFolder/anotherFolder/theRootFolder' and see if
that works?

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

thanks for the link, and thanks for all of your help. the comparison was pretty helpful, and confirmed some of my personal findings - and now that IE and FCK are playing nicely together for me, it looks like i'll go back to my original gut plan to use FCK for the project that i'm working on.

just goes to show how much of a difference a community can make.

thanks.

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

HEADSUP:: the problem is that spaces seem to be replaced with %2520 somewhere in the fckeditor for the image paths, i thought this was because ie returned urlencoded paths but it doesnt appear to be the case. Im looking at why this is happening, just though i would let you know my findings. Also occurs in W2k with IE6 2800.1106 . Im guessing it is only affecting the bit that handles the file:// protocol so does not affect fckeditors performance on a website.

RE: no toolbar images on IE6 PLEEEAAAASE

Good Job! That fixed it on a 2k box I tried it on (forgot the gf's was 2k). Weird thing is that it doesn't exibit the problem on my XP lapper... spaces are handled fine. Funkey!

Thanks for figuring this out!

The link you sent is not working ("No ID Present").

I have the same problem. Can you verify the link?
Thanks
