FreeTextBox (FTB) in IFRAME never loads in Firefox.

Hi,

Using an the FreeTextBox control inside an IFRAME never completes loading - and as I have some actions to perform once its finished loading this is a real problem.

The lines of code that are causing the problem are:

Code:

    this.designEditor.document.open();
    this.designEditor.document.write("<html" + ((this.textDirection == "rtl") ? " dir='rtl'" : "") + ">" +
            "<head>" + 
            ((this.designModeCss != '') ? "<link rel='stylesheet' href='" + this.designModeCss + "' type='text/css' />" : "") + 
            ((this.baseUrl != '') ? "<base href='" + this.baseUrl + "' />" : "") + 
            "</head>" + 
            "<body" + ((this.designModeBodyTagCssClass != '') ? " class='" + this.designModeBodyTagCssClass + "'" : "") + ">" + 
                this.StoreUrls(this.htmlEditor.value) + 
            "</body>" + 
        "</html>");

When I step through it in Firebug it seems to step OK - but it stays loading for as long as I have been able to leave it.

I have no idea why that document.open() line is causing such a problem.

For now I've made these lines conditional to IE as it doesn't seem have a noticable effect on the operation in Firefox.

I would love a fix to this if anyone has one - support at the FreeTextBox site is a bit on the sparse side.

Moved this over to the JavaScript forum where the question is more appropriate.

Adding this line before the block of code show above solves the problem:

Code:

 this.designEditor.document.open();this.designEditor.document.close(); // Hack to ensure iframe doc is closed correctly

Not sure while - likely that the stream wasn't closed properly.
