    Posted: 15 March 2005 at 11:08am
I've searched and haven't found anything so I'm guessing there shouldn't be any issues regarding using the forum wysiwyg editor in firefox. But I'm having an issue with it on my forum.
 
The issue is with the add link buttons. When a firefox user clicks on the button, it brings up the javascript box to enture the url, but when the user clicks ok then the box goes away, but the link is not inserted into the text area.
 
Anyone seen this before or any ideas?

It will run in Firefox as the forum is tested in Firefox as it is my default browser and is only finally tested in IE to make sure IE is compatible.

Firefox has a different way of handling links to IE due to the built in features of the browser.

In the version of the editor you have in the forum you must fist select some text in Firefox to be turned into a link, before clicking the hyperlink button.

Between version 5 and version 6 the entire forum was completly re-written from the ground up.

It can be upgraded and should be not just for extra features, but also for security reasons.

Just backup your Access database and replace all the ASP files with the latest version.
