IE8 openDialog('image') error

[bdahl]

Hi I found a bug in the IE8 ckeditor when I called the following code:

var oEditor = CKEDITOR.instancesblog.message?; oEditor.openDialog('image');

only in IE I get this error:

I found a small change that fixes it:

Hide loader.

I'm not sure about the conditions to make that fail, but the patch is simple and safe.
