<div> resize handle in AJAX RadEditor appearing in IE

I am using an AJAX RadEditor from Telerik in a CMS that I am working on. Everything seems to work well in Firefox, but I have noticed some strange behavior in IE. Namely, when content is put in a , it becomes very difficult to manage. Clicking on the content contained in the creates a striped border, with resize handles attached to it, around the full area of the . This tends to include area that is outside the containing RadEditor. It also causes the cursor to turn into a drag cursor and makes the content draggable. This makes it difficult to actually select the content.

This only happens in IE, and I'm wondering if there is a way to disable this behavior. It is frustrating my clients in their attempts to use the CMS, and unfortunately simply switching to Firefox is not a workable solution for them. Has anyone else encountered this?

+1 A:

I don't think that this is the default editor behavior - in any case you can compare IE and Firefox on the RadEditor online demos. The behavior on your site could be caused by a global CSS style, which is also applied in the editor content area.

You are definitely correct about this being caused by a CSS style. The problem <div>s have a class applied to them which gives the following styles: text-align:left; width:462px; float:left;Unfortunately, I can't just remove these styles. Is there any way to disable this behavior while leaving the styles intact?

You can try using an external CSS file and override the div behavior in the editor content area - http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/externalcssfiles.html
