[Solved] Editor Size Problem

[Paul June Domag]

I set the telerik editor control to 100x250 size. the size is correct after loading. but once I press on the HTML button the editor changes its height. why is this happening?

Telerik control: Ajax Q3 2009
browser: Firefox 3.5.5

here's the snippet when creating an editor:
        <telerik:radeditor id="textEditor" runat="server" OnClientLoad="resize"
            EnableResize="False" Height="100px" Width="250px">
            <Tools>
                <telerik:EditorToolGroup >
                <telerik:EditorTool Name="Cut" />
                <telerik:EditorTool Name="Copy" />
                <telerik:EditorTool Name="Paste" />
                </telerik:EditorToolGroup>
            </Tools>


Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul,

The Height problem is due to a well known issue / bug in the Mozilla / Gecko browsers, and not in RadEditor. The browser itself ignores setting any heights smaller than 150px to the IFRAME element.

Here is a small sample that shows the root of the problem:

<table style="height:80px;border:3px solid green">
    <tr style="height:100%">
        <td style="height:100%">
            <iframe style="border: 1px solid red; height:100%" src=""></iframe>
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

The problem is fixed when the editor is loaded in Design mode, but not when the user switches to Html mode.

To fix the problem you should increase the Height in Firefox to at least 200px.
