I am using the standard Media Picker in several document types and for most of them it is working but in one particular document type the Media Picker just won't open when I click on 'choose...' There are no errors and it is displaying the correct javascript in the status bar? Could there be a conflict with something else in the document type or even in the template?
the link you pasted is that exactly it? It should be ./umbraco/editContent.aspx?id=3543 and yes it would refer to a node. what other fields do you have on that document type? Any content pickers?
Sorry, that was a mistype it is ./umbraco/editContent.aspx?id=3543
I am using content pickers but I also use them on other document types along with a Media Picker and I don't have any problems. Other fields include Textstring, Textbox and HTML (using TinyMCE v3 wysiwyg)
The Error Console in FF brings up the following error on loading the page to edit:
the only thing i can think of is that you have it pointing to a media item then media was removed and now its barfing becuase it cant find it? When it loads do you see title of selected image or does it have link title that says choose? If you can send screen grab in reply that may help.
That looks like there is an image attached. I suspect its been deleted hence we are seeing the rosa taupe img text. Do you have this issue on any other pages based on same document type?
yeah and that image has not been deleted so the choose works? if so then im certain the issue is that the image has been deleted and hence it thinks its still there. Im certain i have seen this issue before.
So i would try the following create a new page copy all the content over form the old one then delete the old one and you should then be able to select the image.
I had the same problem at one point with a 4.0.2 installation, and for some reason it didn't like the alias i had assigned to it. Once I renamed it to something else it worked again.

what version of umbraco are you using and which browser when editing?
Regards
Ismail
I'm using Umbraco 4.0.3 and Firefox 3.6.10
Thanks,
Rachel
What happens when you try it with ie / chrome / safari? Also what other properties do you have on that document type.
Regards
Ismail
Ah, I've just run it in IE and there is an 'Object espected' error regarding a specific id.
../umbraco/editContent.aspxid=3543
Would this be referring to a particular node?
Thanks,

With an image attached it looks like the above (this is a screen grab taken from another site)
yeah and that image has not been deleted so the choose works? if so then im certain the issue is that the image has been deleted and hence it thinks its still there. Im certain i have seen this issue before.

I'm not convinced but I am currently rebuilding the page as I am out of all other options!
Thank you for your time and help.
