[Solved] Trouble with ForeColor tool in IE6

[Jason]

Greetings,

We are working on integrating the RadEditor into an application for a client. This application is designed for internal use at the client, they run IE6.  Whenever I add the Undo, Redo, or ForeColor tools i get a very odd looking render (see screen shot) - I have pasted my source below:

Any help would be greatly appreciated:

<telerik:RadEditor ID="radEditor" runat="server" Height="400px"
                        NewLineBr="true" SkinID="DefaultSetOfTools:
                        AllowScripts="false" EditModes="Design, HTML" Skin="WebBlue">
                        <Tools>
                            <telerik:EditorToolGroup>

Hi Jason,

Thank you for the provided screenshot.

Most probably you have some global style (applied to LI tags) that spoils the editor's design. Please check your global styles and isolate the problem.

If you are not able to fix this problem please open a support ticket and send us a sample project where the problem can be observed. We will do our best to provide a solution

In general, it is not recommended to use global styles with third party controls because obviously the third party controls consist HTML and your global styles can easily ruin their design.

Sincerely,
George
