Description

Steps to reproduce the defect:

Scenario 1

  1. Open the Ajax sample in IE.
  1. Paste the following flash video into source mode.
<object width="576" height="324"><param name="movie" value="http://d.yimg.com/nl/cbe/paas/player.swf"></param><param name="flashVars" value="vid=24944536&shareUrl=http%3A//animalvideos.yahoo.com/%3Fvid%3D24944536&startScreenCarouselUI=hide&"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed width="576" height="324" allowFullScreen="true" src="http://d.yimg.com/nl/cbe/paas/player.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="vid=24944536&shareUrl=http%3A//animalvideos.yahoo.com/%3Fvid%3D24944536&startScreenCarouselUI=hide&"></embed></object>
  1. Switch back to WYSIWYG mode. (If you remove the editor here the video displays fine)
  1. Right click on the Flash placeholder & open the Flash Properties dialog from the context menu.
  1. Click OK on the Flash properties dialog.
  1. Remove the editor.

Expected: The flash video is displayed.

Actual: The flash video is not displayed (see screenshot).

Note: If you check the source you will see that CKEditor adds on a data attribute to the the object tag.

data="http://d.yimg.com/nl/cbe/paas/player.swf"

If you remove this data attribute & then remove the editor the flash video displays fine.

Scenario 2

  1. Open the Ajax sample in Firefox.
  1. Paste the following flash video into source mode.
<object><param name="movie" value="http://www.videojug.com/player?id=17b5b083-b45c-a7dd-6d7f-ff0008cb22b7"></param><embed src="http://www.videojug.com/player?id=17b5b083-b45c-a7dd-6d7f-ff0008cb22b7" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" ></embed></object>
  1. Repeat steps 3 to 6 in Scenario 1 above.

Expected: The flash video is displayed.

Actual: The flash video is not displayed.

Note: If you check the source you will see that CKEditor adds on a data attribute to the the object tag.

data="http://www.videojug.com/player?id=17b5b083-b45c-a7dd-6d7f-ff0008cb22b7"

If you remove this data attribute & then remove the editor the flash video displays fine.

This is true for IE6, IE8 and FF

Hasn't worked in CKEditor from version 3.5.3 revision [6455]

In IE6 in CKEditor versions 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 and 3.5.3 till revision [6454] flash content was not displayed on the page at all (not even an empty frame was shown)

I can also reproduce this in IE7

This's a dup of #7301, in which we've concluded that this is a IE bug in the sample level that does not require any change in the software level. With [6601] we've made the content at least editable again after hitting "Create Editor" on the 2nd (or more) time. I don't think there's anything we should, or can, do about that issue without over-complicating the sample.

If this is an IE bug how come Scenarion 2 described in the test case can be reproduced in FF 3.6? This defect can be reproduced in other samples as well as the AJAX sample (ReplaceByClass, Api, etc.) by following steps 1 to 5 mentioned in the test case and then for step 6 click on the preview button in the toolbar instead of removing the editor. As mentioned in the test case the problem arises when CKEditor adds the data attribute to the <object> tag.

data="http://www.videojug.com/player?id=17b5b083-b45c-a7dd-6d7f-ff0008cb22b7"

Why is this code being added?

This attribute was added to properly support object-only structure (to be cross-browser, in fact). This attribute is pretty common actually. But at least we can prevent having it when not needed, to minimize the impact.
