#3802 closed Bug (fixed)
SCAYT plugin causes IE6 to hang with 100% CPU usage.
| Reported by: | Martin Kou | Owned by: | Frederico Caldeira Knabben |
|---|---|---|---|
| Priority: | Normal | Milestone: | CKEditor 3.0 |
| Component: | UI : Spell Checker | Version: | SVN (CKEditor) - OLD |
| Keywords: | Review+ 3.0RC | Cc: | WebSpellChecker.net |
Description
To reproduce:
- Enable SCAYT in IE6.
- Type anything in the editing area - with a purposefully misspelled word to check for the plugin's effectiveness.
- Wait a few seconds.
- Now your IE6 freezes up with 100% CPU usage.
- If it didn't freeze up in step 4, wait for your misspelled word to get highlighted, and right click on it - it should freeze up here.

Hey Martin... stay calm and breath... let's have a less hacky solution to disable it. I'm attaching a new patch.

I'm able to reproduce it by following the exact steps shown on Martin's screencast.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Since we're going to release a beta really soon, we can't go on to fix this completely. Other tests have shown the bug to occur in IE7 and IE8 as well.
So I'm disabling it for all IE versions at the moment.
