Rich Text editor dies

[Guest Codgerly]

So now, with several issues resolved thanks to this and the other forum, the Rich Text Editor

seems to have died.

Yesterday it had intermittent problems, not saving changes, but showing a blank screen instead.

But this afternoon all the white text areas are gone, just the background color showing, and no

html buttons evident.

I have replaced a couple of background colors for the Webstore page in recent days but do not

think I tampered with anything to do with the text editor.

I have another version of CubeCart 3.0.10 installed now on a dormant site so as to compare files

and possibly replace corrupted files. These are Fantastico installations.

The text pages are OK looking at the under construction Web store via the browser. Just can't

get to them on the admin controls as of today.

After moving some files back and forth from the other CubeCart site, I again see the html buttons,

and the white area for about one second, then it disappears and leaves no space at all just a

horizontal scroll control. However, discovered the Source button, and that reveals about a quarter inch

of white screen, enough to define and copy the raw html... which I can take to a desktop file

and work on then paste back... awkward...

Never have had more than about a half inch of white space on the Page One screen, but that was enough

to work with. Now nothing. So will have to do the work elsewhere and paste there, and this means

a customer can't handle it himself.

THANKS! THAT WORKED! NEW TO CUBECART BUT LEARNING, THANKS TO THE FORUMS ETC.

Heres the fix for you

1. OPEN admin/includes/rte/fckeditor.php

2. FIND the following line of code at about line 39:

$this->Height = '200' ;

3. CHANGE THE VALUE from 200 to 400, or some other value until

the window is of a size to suit you. You can test the setting by

saving and uploading the file, and viewing the editor on the add

or edit products page.

4. SAVE and UPLOAD the file to your webserver.

5. OPEN admin/includes/rte/fckeditor.js

6. FIND the following line of code at about line 31:

this.Height = height || '200' ;

7. CHANGE THE VALUE from 200 to the same value you set in step 3

above for fckeditor.php.

8. SAVE and UPLOAD the file to your webserver.
