Problem installing

Ive managed to get the editor to display using both textAreaReplace and the Ajax method, hwoever in both instances the editor is nto editable.. I can click on the white area and no cursor shows up and typing does nothing, If I hit paste it opens a pop up for me to paste again which then will change the content in the editor do I have to do something to enable editing ?

Re: Problem installing

Ive figured out that its something to do with display:none on my fckEditors Parent Div.
I need the div to be invisible until I request it
tis strange it doesnt let me make it invisible even after I initialize it.

var tdiv = document.getElementById("txtMessage");
var ed = new FCKeditor("txtMessage");
ed.BasePath = "/scripts/fskeditor/" ;
ed.Width = 500
ed.height = 500
tdiv.innerHTML = ed.CreateHtml();
document.getElementById("divParent").style.display = "none"

once i make the parent display block, the editor is broken and canot be edited. unless i comment out the last line. then it works and i can even make the parent display none later and it doesnt break so maybe it needs longer to initialize.

Re: Problem installing

When you make your div visible you'll have to call the api function MakeEditable().

You can also try to use a nightly build that should take care of it automatically.

I have tried MakeEditable() and it does nto appear to work. however a quick hack that does work is calling SwitchEditMode which will switch to source then back and the scren is editable... I will try a nightly build some itme and see if that fixes the issue.

I also tried MakeEditable() and it does not work. Using SwitchEditMode() works.
