Well, after spending the last 12 hours converting my site to this product I've found it doesn't seem to work at all in Firefox. Here is an example http://www.aviation.siu.edu/scholarships/submit/ - http://www.aviation.siu.edu/scholarships/submit/ .
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've had a look and got a number of errors in Firefox, it looks like you have not implemented the RTE correctly and that some of the javascript is failing to load, or you have changed some of the names of the items within the RTE.

Hmm, I've entered the code exactly as listed without altering the names of anything. I also have no problems using this in IE. Any suggestions?

I've had a look and I think I can now see the problem.

You are calling the form name 'editor', it looks like this is conflicting with the javascript used in the RTE.

Try changing the form name to something other than 'editor', maybe something like 'myEditorForm'

Don't forget to also change the, strFormName = "" , variable to whatever you cange the form name to.

Ah ha. That would make sense. I'll try changing that tonight to see if it makes a difference.
 
Thanks,
Chris

Well, still no luck. I changed the variables on the page and it still will not initialize. My only thought is maybe there is a problem in that the body tag is in an include file?

Any more ideas?

THANKS!

Am I missing something?
I enter text in FF, it takes me to the confirmation page where I can see the text I entered. I hit "Confirm", and it takes me to the page that says I'm successful.

It's not a problem with submission in Firefox dpyers, but none of the buttons in the editor work and throw up JS errors.
