 Topic: BUG =>7.5 wysiwyg netscape 6
Posted: 06 October 2003 at 5:36am |
Netscape 6 users can't use the reply topic wysiwyg editor. They simply can't type text in there while it was possible with version 7.1.
Anyway this can be fixed?
(it's not due to corrupted files or anything.. I tried it on my own site and a clean install as well).

Netscape 6 is not RTE enabled, only version 7.1 of Netscape is using
the Mozilla Gecko Midas API as Netscape 7.01 uses the Mozilla 1.4
engine.
In Netscape 6 or Netscape 7 and 7.01 you need to use the standard non WYSIWYG Editor.

Thanks for explaining BoRg.
I'll try and see if netscape 6 can be auto detected so it switches to a non wysiwyg editor.

I would rather use browscap.ini to detect several versions as it's easier to add other incompatible browsers as well.
I can't find an updated version of it though. It's nowhere to be found on microsoft and browserhawk doesn't have one that detects netscape 7.

It's not so necisarry in thisas I am only detacting a few browsers,
it's just that Netscape 6 can sneek through looking like a 1.3+ mozilla
revision of Netscape, but changing line 180 of the file
functions_common.asp should solve the problem:-
ElseIf inStr(1, strUserAgent, "Gecko", 1) AND inStr(1, strUserAgent,
"Firebird", 1) = 0 AND inStr(1, strUserAgent, "Netscape6", 1) = 0 Then

Safari has the same issue.Half of the 3000 + forum members i have are mac users.
I've disabled the rich text form them as well, or is it gecko enabled or something.
