Hi,
Please consider this code:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.2/jquery-ui.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="dlgDiv" style="width:202px; height:72px; border: solid 1px grey"></div>
<iframe id="iView" style="width: 200px; height:70px; border: dotted 1px red" frameborder="0"></iframe>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
var doc = document.getElementById("iView").contentWindow.document;
doc.designMode = "On"
doc.open()
doc.write("<html><head></head><body class='some-class'>Some test text</body></html>");
doc.close();
jQuery("#iView").appendTo("#dlgDiv")
})
</script>
</body>
</html>
In IE it works fine and preserves test in the frame ("Some test text") as well as it keeps it in design mode. In FF/Chrome/Opera it wipes out all content of the iframe - if you inspect it's DOM with FireBug you can see that iframe.body lost it's class "some-class" as well as all text and it's not in design mode. Any ideas how to overcome this problem? The original problem is that all rich text editors fail to work in a jQuery.dialog in those browsers and I tracked the problem down to the above-mentioned fact...
It's a real show stopper for me, any help would he highly appreciated!
Thank you, Andrey
