Hi everybody, I'm new in this community. I recently implemented Web Wiz Forums 7.9 in my website and personalised it to fit the look and feel; it seems to work very good, except for this little issue.
The RTE editor works fine, it posts the messages correctly, but it won't allow me to use shortcuts (i.e. Ctrl+C or Ctrl+V) or delete characters using the Delete key.
I've seen other implementations of WWF and this doesn't happen; I also re-uploaded the RTE files (including the JS one), tried with the original language files and checked from other computers, but I can't get this to work properly.
Any help you could bring me on this would be very appreciated.
Greetings from Argentina,
Sethief

Sounds like a browser of windows setting is hosed. What browser are you using? Are you running a clipboard manager? -------------

I'm using the last version of Internet Explorer. I tried it with Firefox and it seems to work fine, but 95% of my visitors use IE... so I need to fix this 
About clipboard managers, I'm not using any, and I tried this in other computers with IE and still does the same.

It works in IE for me on 7.91 and 8.0 alpha 1. -------------

The only other think I might think of would be the javascript interception/not intercepting the keypresses. I personally suck at javascript but if you post a url, perhaps someone could spot something. -------------

In the version of the RTE that comes with version 7.91 of web wiz forums the keyboard shortcuts for the RTE only work in IE. In IE the keyboard shortcuts for 'cut', 'copy', and 'paste' are handled by the browser itself and there is no actual coding within the RTE code to do this. If it is not working it could be a problem or security setting within IE, or some Javascript code of your own that are over-riding IE's keyboard shortcut handling. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

I know that, the point is... how am I doing that? How can I get it back to normal?

Make sure you do not have any of your own javascript in the page and
try changing settings in IE and see if that sorts out the problem. You could even try re-installing IE. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

I found the problem... I can't believe it, it's the JavaScript code of the free stats service I'm actually using. This is the code: <!-- ADDFREESTATS.COM AUTOCODE V4.0 -->
<script type="text/javascript"> <!-- var AFS_Account="MY_ACCOUNT_NUMBER"; var AFS_Tracker="auto"; var AFS_Server="www4"; var AFS_Page="DetectName"; var AFS_Url="DetectUrl"; // --> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src=" http://www4.addfreestats.com/cgi-bin/afstrack.cgi?usr=MY_ACCOUNT_NUMBER - http://www4.addfreestats.com/cgi-bin/afstrack.cgi?usr=MY_ACCOUNT_NUMBER "> </script> <noscript> <a href=" http://www.addfreestats.com - http://www.addfreestats.com "> <img src=" http://www4.addfreestats.com/cgi-bin/connect.cgi?usr=MY_ACCOUNT_NUMBER - http://www4.addfreestats.com/cgi-bin/connect.cgi?usr=MY_ACCOUNT_NUMBER " border=0 title="AddFreeStats.com Free Web Stats!"></a> </noscript> <!-- ENDADDFREESTATS.COM AUTOCODE V4.0 --> I know that it works if I remove this stuff, but I'll lose my stats if I do that. I'll start searching a new stats service, but I post the code just for you to check it... you know your forums way better than I do, and maybe taking a look you can tell what is the part that messes up the RTE.
Thanks very very much for your help! (and for your free forums, of course
 ) |

Does your web host not give you any stats? If not and they give you access to your log files for your site you could always use a free log file analyst program, much better than these free stat services. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

The bulk of the javascript comes from cgi programs at addfreestats.com. They're not viewable. If your webhost doesn't have a stats program, ask them how to download your logs and use one of the many free log analyzers. You might want to check out AWststs as a lot of people seem to like it. -------------
