IE8 problem with the Insert Table icon in the page editor

[tintu]

HI,

 We encountered this problem when we upgraded to IE8 on two of our three computers. The other computer has IE7 and Firefox, and it's fine with both. 

- Click the Insert Table icon, which expands to a pull-down selection. The botton third of the pull-down is 3 rows of 4 table manipulation icons. With IE7 and Firefox, all 12 icons are active. With IE8, the first 10 icons are greyed out; only Set Cell Properties and Set Table Properties are active.

Bottom Line: We can't manipulate tables on our web pages.
 
we are woking with radeditor 2007  for ASP.net 1.0


please help!!!!!

thanks

Hello Tintu,

RadEditor 2007  for ASP.net 1.0 does not support IE8, which was released later. If you experience this problem in IE8, you can put the following meta tag

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />

in the head of your page and it will be rendered in IE7 mode in IE8, which should fix the problem.

However, the recommended approach is to upgrade to the latest version 2010.2 929 of RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX, which is more stable, provides full cross browser support and a lot of new features and bug fixes. Migration instructions are available in this help article: Migration from RadEditor Classic to RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX.

Hi Tintu,

Are you able to reproduce the problem in the Default Example of the latest official version 7.3.6 of RadEditor Classic? If the problem is not reproducible, open a support ticket and I will send you the installation. The development of RadEditor Classic is stopped 2 years ago and it is not available for download.

If the problem is reproducible with the latest version of RadEditor Classic, you should consider upgrading your .NET Framework to at least .NET2.0 and migrating to RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX.


All the best,
