Error: E has no properties?

Error: E has no properties
Source File: /FCK/editor/js/fckeditorcode_gecko.js
Line: 28

function AlertName(iName){
oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance(iName);

outstr = oEditor.GetXHTML(); // Error is thrown here, I've verified the oEditor object is ok
alert(outstr);

}

This is being called by a dialog window, for testing a function I'm working on, and I'm pulling my hair out with it please help!

The second time I click the dialog "OK" button, it alerts the expected HTML output. It fails the first time, every time.

I just found that this also happens when I click the 'Source' view button. First try throws the error, 2nd time works as intended.

RE: Error: E has no properties?

Aside from several plugins (which I tried commenting out to troubleshoot this problem) this is a standard install. I'm working on a "save as" dialog and got it working for the most part. You helped with the FitWindow problem I was running in to and that's about when I started noticing this behavior. Not sure what I could have done to have caused this.

I've also done a mod to the filemanager asp connector ( but I don't think that would have caused it). They are detailed here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph ... tid=543655 (startup folder)

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph ... tid=543655 (resource directories)

I'm pretty new to this library but I'm working my way around it. I appreciate all your help!

RE: Error: E has no properties?

Do you have a demo up anywhere, so I can check the errormessage myself?
Btw, for a save as feature, you can try the LFO plugin : http://fckplugins.saulmade.nl/ (panel 'LFO plugin and filemanager extensions')

RE: Error: E has no properties?

I am having a similar problem - error is raised the first time, works fine after that. What's wierd is that the identical code has been working fine before we upgraded to the latest editor version. Could you tell me more details of what you changed in the config file that fixed the problem?

BTW, I noticed that the problem only seems to happen in Firefox 2, not IE 7.

Thanks,

Steve

RE: Error: E has no properties?

I just used the template config file from teh latest build and cut and pasted my changes. And It was a FF issue but there was also an error in IE7 but it wasn't very specific (nothing new there).

RE: Error: E has no properties?

Thanks to Paul (digitalskyline) his suggestion fixed the problem. Some time ago I had modified the fckconfig file fairly extensively. When I upgraded to the new editor version I overwrote the newer fckconfig file with the older one I had modified. Apparently the fckconfig file of the new editor version defines some additional config parameters that the new editor needs. Once I reinstalled the editor and copied my updates to the newer fckconfig file the problem seems to have gone away.

Thanks again for your help Paul!
