RadEditor Find and replace strange behavior

[Timothi]

In radeditor i have activated Find and replace functionallity, but it have strange behavior. 

For example:
1) in radeditor i have text : jan jan jan
2) i pres replace all text alike "jan" with 1
3) it works

an other example

1) in radeditor i have text : jan jan jan
2) i pres replace all text alike "jan" with jan1 
3) whole IE window freeze, and i need to stop it in process window


i thought it was smething to do with numbers, but i tryed replace "jan" with "abcdefg" and it make it freeze too. 


Any suggestions?

Hello Timothi,


Can you reproduce this behavior with the Default Settings online demo of the RadEditor? I am asking this because this seems to work fine with me (see the attached video). If you cannot, I advise that you examine the RadEditor configuration there and compare it with your own to see the difference that is causing the problem with you.

Also, does the same behavior occur with you if you upgrade to the latest version? If so - under which browser can you reproduce this issue? Is there anything I am missing in my test?

just tried with stadrad radeditor settings, still same. Editor settings: 

<telerik:RadEditor runat="server" ID="RadEditor1" Height="515"> 

i removed any kind of javascript we had goind with radeditor. Its looks like only replace all button make everything freeze. I tryed different versions tried: 2012.411.35 and 2012.411.40 still same 

Behavior can be found in IE 9 quirks mode

Hi,

Were you able to replicate the problem in the Default Settings demo of the RadEditor? If the problem is not reproducible in it than upgrade to the latest build which is Q2 2012 SP1 (version 2012.2.724) and test again. If the problem is still reproducible, isolate it in a simple working project and send it along with reproduction steps via a support ticket.

Kind regards,

Do u have any idea how long will it take to fix this bug? Cause we are just about to release new version of our software next week.

Hello,

The priority of the bug is not top and most likely it will be fixed after the Q3 release. If more users report it we will raise its priority.

Currently, you can modify the Find and Replace dialog and remove the Replace All option. You can see how to register and customize the external dialogs of RadEditor in the following live demo: Customize Built-in Dialogs.

All the best,
Rumen
