All,
 
Perhaps someone can assist me.  I've searched the support forums but can't find anything similar.  I've been using the registered WWF on my site for over a year but have only just tried integrating it into the site proper - it used to open into a new window without my site header and footer.
 
I've now added my site header, footer and left frame, as asp includes, into the appropriate header and footer WWF files. The problem is that I cannot type posts into the text field of the RTE when using IE, the input field does not even show a blinking cursor. The problem is only evident when using IE, I can enter text fine and post under Firefox - I wouldn't normally be too concerned but there are many people still using IE so I thought I'd put some more effort in Smile
 
I've checked the code in my header and footer to ensure that all tags opened in the header are closed in my footer, I can't think of anything else to check.
 
I'm using WWF 7.7a, IE 6 and Firefox 1.0.6.  Any tips or suggestions will be gladly received.
 
Cheers,

It could be that some javascript or a form, div, etc. name is interfering with the running of the RTE.

Try removing any javascript, form elements, etc. that you have in your header and footer files to try a track down the problem.
