Descriptive summary:
JavaScript errors appearing when adding a new hyperlink or when editing an
existing hyperlink in IE8. The error only occurs when the doctype is set
to HTML4 (FCKConfig.DocType).
Steps to reproduce:
It is quite easy to reproduce - edit
fckeditor\_samples\html\assets\sample15.config.js and add the line:
FCKConfig.DocType = '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01
Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>';
Then run sample 15 and click into the hyperlink. Click the 'edit
hyperlink' button. IE8 throws an exception and asks if you want to debug
the web page. The error message given is "Invalid Argument".
A simliar error appears if a new link is added, when fck_link.js also
calls oEditor.FCKSelection.SelectNode( aLinks[0] ) from function Ok();
Browser name and OS:
Bug appears in: IE8, Windows XP or Vista.
Bug does not appear: IE6 or IE7. Also does not appear in IE8 with no
doctype, a doctype of HTML3.2 or XHTML1/1.1. Only HTML 4!
Fix:
The problem appears to be in fckselection_ie.js, function
FCKSelection.SelectNode. I think that if the statements in the try and the
catch blocks are swapped round, so that it tries to create a text range
first, instead of trying to create a control range first, it won't throw
the error. The error is thrown outside of the try/catch block when
executing oRange.select().
This bug has not been fixed on the nightly build.
