My editor has an empty space at the bottom (see attached screenshot). As far as I can tell, this only appears when autoheight is true. I have tried clearing out the modules and changing css, all with no luck. When I look at the editor's source in firefox using firebug I noticed that there is a newline which is causing the bottom space to exist (it is between the Wrapper table and the InsertLink div):

<div id="ctl00_cphMain_fv_reSupervisorNotes" class="RadEditor Default reWrapper" style="height: auto; width: 100%; min-height: 100px; min-width: 856px;">

<div id="ctl00_cphMain_fv_reSupervisorNotes_dialogOpener" style="display:none;">

<div class="reRibbonBarWrapper"></div>

<table id="ctl00_cphMain_fv_reSupervisorNotesWrapper" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="table-layout:auto;width:100%;height:100px;">

<div id="ctl00_cphMain_fv_reSupervisorNotes_InsertLink" class="reInsertLinkWrapper" style="display: none;">

<table class="reControlsLayout" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">

</div>

<input id="ctl00_cphMain_fv_reSupervisorNotes_ClientState" type="hidden" name="ctl00_cphMain_fv_reSupervisorNotes_ClientState" autocomplete="off">

</div>

Here is my editor declaration:

<telerik:RadEditor

ID="reSupervisorNotes" runat="server"

EditModes="Design" ContentAreaMode="Div" NewLineMode="P"

ToolsFile="~/App_Data/RadEditor/Tools.xml" ToolbarMode="ShowOnFocus"

OnClientLoad="RadEditorOnClientLoad">

Hello,

A little piece of javascript code will remove the white space:

<body>

<form id="form1" runat="server">

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">

</asp:ScriptManager>

<telerik:RadEditor ID="reSupervisorNotes" runat="server" EditModes="Design" ContentAreaMode="Div"

NewLineMode="P" ToolsFile="Tools.xml" ToolbarMode="ShowOnFocus"

AutoResizeHeight="true" Height="100px" Width="100%"

_OnClientLoad="RadEditorOnClientLoad">

<Languages>

<telerik:SpellCheckerLanguage Code="en-GB" Title="English UK" />

</Languages>

</telerik:RadEditor>

<script type="text/javascript">

(function() {

var editroWrap = document.getElementById( "<%= reSupervisorNotes.ClientID %>" ),

children = [].slice.call(editroWrap.childNodes);

for (var i = 0, l = children.length; i < l; i++ ) {

var child = children[i];

if (child.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE) {

editroWrap.removeChild( child );

}

})();

</script>

</form>

</body>

That works, thanks!

I adapted your solution to work on every editor on my site via the OnClientLoad method:

function RadEditorOnClientLoad(sender, args)

{

var editroWrap = document.getElementById(sender.get_id()),

children = [].slice.call(editroWrap.childNodes);

for (var i = 0, l = children.length; i < l; i++)

{

var child = children[i];

if (child.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE)

{

editroWrap.removeChild(child);

}

Hello Daniel,

You could replace the provided function with this one:

function RadEditorOnClientLoad(sender, args){

var editroWrap = document.getElementById(sender.get_id()),

reBlank = /^\s*$/,

child = editroWrap.firstChild;

while (child) {

var currentNode = child;

child = currentNode.nextSibling;

if (currentNode.nodeName == "#text" && reBlank.test(currentNode.nodeValue)) {

editroWrap.removeChild(currentNode);

}

The reason why the whole function should be replaced is that not only the slice method does not work in IE8 and IE7, but there is no Node object.
