problem with showmodaldialog()

I am trying to run ckeditor 3.2.1 within a page that is launched via the showModalDialog() function.

IE 7

The menu items that are drop-downs do not work correctly. When you click on them, they flash the contents of the drop-down, then disappear.

This occurs if you have a single tab open in IE and that page launches the ckeditor page via showModalDialog(). Curiously, if you have multiple tabs open, it works fine.

Anyone know a workaround for this other than not using showModalDialog()?

Re: problem with showmodaldialog()

I have verified that this bug does not exist in FCKeditor 2.6.6. It is only a problem in 3.x.

Should i go back to 2.6.6?

When will the bug be fixed in 3.x?

Re: problem with showmodaldialog()

Do you really expect that this can be fixed without filing a bug and providing a testcase to reproduce the problem?

Re: problem with showmodaldialog()

We use CKEditor only with showModalDialog (as a newsletter editor) and we are desperately looking for a solution, otherwise it is worthless for us. Our customers get really annoyed about the fact that they can not change the font (name, size) after the first time. The #7175 patch does not fix this problem.
Does anyone know what is causing the bug (which script file) or how to fix it?

Re: problem with showmodaldialog()

that was the main reason why we decided to down grade to 2.6 version...

this and the fact that right click does not work properly....

if you rigth click anywhere the coursor stays at its original place , you need to left click on the desired place and only than right click....

this two issues are in modal dialogs only..... very annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2.6.2 work much better!

the test case is: open editor in modal dialog...

try to use change font/size or do a right click on text...

Re: problem with showmodaldialog()

Hi all,

Reproducing this issue is very easy, actually.

Simply create a new HTML page in CKEditor's samples folder, with the following contents:

<script>showModalDialog('fullpage.html');</script>


This will open the full CKEditor sample in a modal dialog window, and you'll be able to reproduce the bug.
It only occurs on IE as far as I know (IE 9 included). Firefox has no problems.

Please let us know if you need more information.

wiktor wrote:@parkheaven and anyone experiencing this issue: please provide a working sample which clearly shows what problem are you experiencing (might be a simple .NET project or anything else).

Kenrath provided a patch in https://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/7175 and the comment above says only that "#7175 patch does not fix this problem" :( We really need more details. How can we fix all issues related to modal dialog windows if you don't provide any sample to help us in tracing down this issue?
