Description
Is anyone able to solve that problem?
I have a major crash with IE 6 SP1 and Mediawiki+FCKeditor.
The crash happens when I change a certain bit of an article and when I press "save" or "wikitext". it is very disturbing as I don't know how to debug that.
You can reproduce the crash by following those steps in IE 6:
- go on http://mediawiki.fckeditor.net/index.php/TestMyBug : a new page I created
2.. change the title : e.g. remove the ':'
- click on 'wikitext' or on the 'save' button
... IE crashes !!
info : Windows 2000, IE 6.0.2800 SP1. works fine with Firefox 2

I was able to consistently reproduce this problem with IE6. It works well with IE7.
It is not an issue with FCKeditor, but with the MediaWiki plugin. I've debugged it, and found the culprit. I'm attaching a possible patch for it.
I haven't tested it. Could you please confirm that it solved the problem?

Replying to Vincent.cabs:
Just one question : how did you find the bug ?
Well... some intuition helped :) Let's say that I have a long experience on fighting browsers bugs :)
I've committed the fix to the SVN:

I'm not able to reproduce this bug in IE6, but in WIN SP2.

Go back to http://mediawiki.fckeditor.net/index.php/TestMyBug. You should be able to reproduce the bug with IE 6. Don't know why. Is there a charset problem ?

Confirmed in IE6 and IE7. I've attached a screenshot of the error. It's possible that we had a similar bug before but I'm no certain.
