EditorAreaCSS IE8

[exanice]

I've tested the FCK Editor 2.6.4 (Build 21629) with Internet Explorer 8 Release Candidate (v. 8.0.6001.18372IC). And most of the Features work fine!

But there seems to be a problem when linking custom css styles with long file paths to the FCK Editor. I tried several different options to EditorAreaCSS, and this is what I found out:

Test value: FCKConfig.EditorAreaCSS = "/App_Themes/Blue/css/content.css";
Result: js Error on Line: 38 (fckeditorcode_ie.js)
Error: Invalid argument.
Function: var s=A.createStyleSheet("");

Test value: FCKConfig.EditorAreaCSS = "/content.css, /App_Themes/Blue/css/content.css";
Result: js Error Line: 38 (fckeditorcode_ie.js)
Error: Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.
Function: return A.createStyleSheet(B).owningElement;

The Files were available and on the right place! In all other browser everything works fine.

Any Solutions?

I've tested but it isn't failing for me.

Do you have any other info that could help to reproduce the problem?

i already found a solution last week!

i made a mistake on the definition in fckconfig.js file:
FCKConfig.EditorAreaCSS = "/content.css, /App_Themes/Blue/css/content.css";
Should be like this:
FCKConfig.EditorAreaCSS = new Array ("/content.css", "/App_Themes/Blue/css/content.css");

But then occured another problem, i use the .net fck editor implementation to set EditorAreaCSS, and there is the only option to set a string for the EditorAreaCSS (should be an array). it passes the string to a hidden field, and then it gets read from the fckeditor. the fckeditor expects an array when given multiple paths to css files, in IE8 this produces the error which i descriped above.

i fixed it by inserting the follwing line of code to the FCKConfig_PreProcess() Function:
if (A.EditorAreaCSS.indexOf(",")>-1) A.EditorAreaCSS=A.EditorAreaCSS.split(',');

if more than one value is passed, it gets seperated to an array, and everything works fine

i would be pleaset if you can add this fix to the original source code!

i changed the code a bit, because when only one css path with a on long value is passed, it occurs an error too.

the fix now look as follow:
if (A.EditorAreaCSS!=") A.EditorAreaCSS=A.EditorAreaCSS.split(',');
and in the original file:
if (oConfig.EditorAreaCSS!=") oConfig.EditorAreaCSS=oConfig.EditorAreaCSS.split(',');

so it is always an array, and it works...

The conversion from string to an array is done in the FCKTools.AppendStyleSheet and I've said, I tried to use a value consisting of several paths separated by a comma and it did work at first try without any change to the code.

[exanice]

do you work with the .net class for fckeditor?

Perhaps then the problem comes from the environment, encoding, iis or something...

No one else has reported any issue like this one, so it must be something else on your side besides FCKeditor.
