Ok, I know what's going on here, but I don't know the exact solution. I'm hoping one of you two know the solution. The good news is there's no bug, the rich text box isn't supposed to work! :)
What's going on is that quirks mode is disabling the creation of the rich text box. This appears to be due to a version check against the version that's coming from the XAP. So I guess fixing some Silverlight ' version specified in the XAP file will fix this - I don't know if that's a XAP being generated by Chiron or if it's something on gestalt.ironpython.net. > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com [mailto:users- > boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Michael Foord > Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 6:21 PM > To: Discussion of IronPython > Cc: Jimmy Schementi > Subject: Re: [IronPython] Still stuck on rich editor with IronPython > and Silverlight > > On 17/04/2010 03:19, Jimmy Schementi wrote: > > Michael, let's get Dino in on this ... > > > > Dino, This seems like our fault, but I'm not savvy enough to track it > down or verify my claim.
