Safari - Drag 'n Drop Images Issue

Thanks for the prompt reply alphonsomi.

Heh, you're right, I did forget that. I was confused by the claim of "Safari Support".

Is that the official answer alphonsomi? Does anyone know of a fix/work-around?

I'd hate to abandon a really great open-source solution with such a wide user base for a commercial solution that I know works.

Any further direction would be most helpful.

Thanks.

I appreciate your comment alphonsomi, but you appear to be taking offense to my comments. I meant none. I was being honest.

I could not find in the documentation any reference to DnD issues in Safari while the product claims to support Safari. That is not a true representation of the product for that piece of functionality. As for Safari having a bug or not, is it really a bug (design failing/misinterpretation of standards) or a slightly different implementation? The IE "Peek-a-boo" behavior is a bug, a Mac single button mouse is a different implementation. That may be an argument over semantics, but if it is an implementation difference, would WebKit be able to help? I'm not trying to be facetious, I'm merely trying to find a solution to an issue.

As for people "going down to their knees" to keep me from switching solutions, I have no intention or expectation of causing that. I was actually stating my dismay at having to go that route. In fact, as our implementation is a commercial venture, we were planning to buy a commercial license and support plan for FCKEditor, but I wasn't dangling that in front of anyone's face. I have a lot of respect for open source and FCKEditor and it is almost always my preference. I both donate and contribute to various projects. Remember, I'm trying to find a solution.

If you represent FCKEditor is some way, you may think about revising your tone when dealing with people. If you don't then you can say what ever you'd like. Either way, reread my posts, I meant no disrespect.

If anyone can point me to a solution so I can use FCKEditor that would be ideal, and most appreciated.

Thanks.

Awesome, thanks alphonsomi. Those last two post are very encouraging and very much appreciated.

I would like to wait the two weeks for the milestone. Unfortunately, the powers that be here at work, and the deadlines on the application are such that we need the solution right away. Our timelines are so tight that as soon as I implemented that other editor, QA HAD to start working on for our editable functionality.

Upgrading later is not an option.

It's not how I like to work, but you have to take some bad with the good I guess.

I do plan to continue using FCK whenever it's feasible as I do feel it's the easiest and best overall solution, it just didn't work out this time.

I'm also glad that I was able to help improve the product and will hopefully be able to contribute more down the road.

Thanks.
