7561	IE 'editor.getSelection()' is null or not an object	Michael Camden	Garry Yao	"This error is sometimes thrown in IE. It happens onClick and I've tracked it down to the following bit of code.

plugins/selection/plugin.js[[BR]]

{{{
Ln #215: editor.getSelection().getRanges()[ 0 ].select();
}}}

According to the documentation, and my observations, editor.getSelection() can return null. This statement should be wrapped in a conditional block to avoid calling .getRanges on a null object.

{{{
if((selection = editor.getSelection()) != null) {
   selection.getRanges()[ 0 ].select();
}
}}}
