I have found an issue when trying to save rich text properties when using IE9. Basically, the change doesn't happen, and it reverts back to the previous content.
It works fine in Chrome and Firefox 5, as well as IE 6 (not tried IE 7 or 8).
I have a lot of clients with this problem too. Running the browser i compatability mode seems to fix it, but it would be great if there was a fix from umbraco HQ.
Think it's related to some issues with tinymce and IE9 where there have been some problems. Perhaps try to check the issue tracker on umbraco.codeplex.com and see if anyone has reported this issue- if not feel free to create it and post the issue in here so when people come across this post they have an opportunity to vote up the bug. If I remember correctly though this issue should have been fixed in v4.7 - so what Umbraco version are you experiencing this on? Perhaps an upgrade is possible?
If upgrading is not an option then Claus is right that you can can work around this by emulating IE8 mode by adding this line in the <head> section in the umbraco.aspx file found in the the /umbraco/umbraco.aspx
I only recommend to do this if the problem can not be solved by asking the client to use another browser and you need to work around it permanently. It's never a good idea to edit the source code.
Saving Rich text editor/tiny mce areas in IE9
Hi,
I have found an issue when trying to save rich text properties when using IE9. Basically, the change doesn't happen, and it reverts back to the previous content.
It works fine in Chrome and Firefox 5, as well as IE 6 (not tried IE 7 or 8).
Is this a known bug/issue?
Thanks
Danny
