IE: Toolbar combos don't open on second click on modal dialogs

[Khurram Sheikh]

Hi,

We have bought CKEditor last year and now wants to upgrade.

My developer has tested the CK Editor 3.5.3.0 and found a problem that is irritating. He was not able to find its solution on your website either. Please find his text below and attached sample project related to the problem.

Developer Message: “I’ve tested the CK Editor 3.5.3.0 in my sample project. It has the problem when we use the CK Editor in the modal dialog page. The dropdowns (Format, Font and Styles) start flickering on second click. Please see the sample project developed in MS Visual Studio 2008 attached herewith the email. Please suggest the solution.”

Please let me know its solution as soon as possible so that we can decide to move forward with the upgrade.

I have a sample project too but dont know how to upload it through this interface. Please let me know if you want the sample project too and how i can send it to you.

Thanks,

Khurram Sheikh

Sample Project for the mentioend problem

Thank you for providing the sample application.

Confirmed. When clicking for the second time on one of dropdowns it shows for a moment and disappears.

I think the problem on javascript side. If I initialize CKEditor through script, the problem still exists. This problem appears only under IE.

HTMLPage.htm - simple page to reproduce bug.

@kaga I have checked this one more time.
While your HTML sample for latest CKEditor 3.6.5 can be reproduced only in IE6, the first sample updated to latest CKEditor 3.6.5 and CKEditor for .NET 3.6.4 can be reproduced in every version of IE.

It seems there is some conflict between .NET and editor when it is displayed in modal popup.
The same thing is happening for VB Webbrowser control - #7078.
Both issues have probably the same solution.
