    Posted: 21 November 2012 at 11:00am
Firefox just released Version 17.0 a few hours ago.

It appears that the Web Wiz Editor is non-functional in FF 17.0 for Windows. I have not tried the Mac version yet.

The issue is reproducible using your own demo page: http://demo.richtexteditor.org/

This is a CRITICAL/EMERGENCY issue as I have hundreds of customers that this affects.

I am going through the RTE code now to see if I can come up with a work-around.

I am looking in: RTE_functions_common.asp

Again, this is critical. Please help.

It appears the following is tripping up the RTEnabled function:

isNumeric(Trim(Mid(strUserAgent, CInt(inStr(1, strUserAgent, "Gecko/", 1)+6), 8)))

Here is the new agent string:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:17.0) Gecko/17.0 Firefox/17.0

Here is an old working agent string:

Mozilla/6.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:16.0.1) Gecko/20121011 Firefox/16.0.1

Trying some code now to fix it.

The following appears to be an immediate fix for the issue.


     ElseIf inStr(1, strUserAgent, "Gecko", 1) > 0 AND inStr(1, strUserAgent, "Firebird", 1) = 0 AND Trim(Mid(strUserAgent, CInt(inStr(1, strUserAgent, "Gecko/", 1)+6), 2)) = "17"     Then
                    RTEenabled = "Gecko"
