    Insert Table problems

    I'm trying to insert a table into the a Rich Text Editor.  I've got insert table button enabled in TinyMCE, and when the button is clicked the dialog opens ok.  Trouble is when I click insert NOTHING happens.  The dialog flashes a bit but remains open and nothing is inserted.

    Is this a tinyMCE problem?

    Umbraco 4.0.3 (freshly upgraded from 4.0.1 about 10mins ago) on Windows Server 2k3.

    Paul -

    I'd try a hard-delete of your local browser cache - I've seen this more than once when the JS files are updated with the update to 4.0.3.

    Hi Paul,

    I understand that you did an upgrade right before the problem occured. It's possible that some files got corrupted during the upgrade (especially when FTP'ing to a webhost.)

    Try removing the umbraco_client folder (after a backup) and adding it again from a freshly downloaded umbraco 4.0.3 install.

    Good luck,

    Chris

    I forgot to mention. I've had a similar problem some time ago:

    OK solved the problem:  It was caused by using Chrome.  When I use the same dialog in FF it works fine.

    Not sure what is causing the error to happen in the first place, but here is a workaround.

    ~/umbraco_client/tinymce3/plugins/table/js/table.js

    There are two JavaScript errors that seem to happen only in WebKit browsers in the insertTable function:

    O = I.elements.frame.options[I.elements.frame.selectedIndex].value;

    L = I.elements.rules.options[I.elements.rules.selectedIndex].value;

    Both of these  cause this error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'value' of undefined

    If you look at the SELECT list for these they don't have an item selected. I tried to set selected="selected" on each of these but it had no effect. I ended up changing table.js to this:

    try {
        O = I.elements.frame.options[I.elements.frame.selectedIndex].value;
    } catch(e1) {
        O = "";
    }
    try {
        L = I.elements.rules.options[I.elements.rules.selectedIndex].value;
    } catch(e2) {
        L = "";
    }
