Description

Serious problem with IE8 since it is still a major browser for many users ie they haven't generally upgraded PCs for a while and are still running XP so cannot use IE9 and may not be allowed to use another browser.

An error occurs for lots of individual plugins - eg BOX, FILE, IFRAME, INCLUDE etc., etc., when trying to open the plugin editor in the wysiwyg edit screen.

The simple IE8 debugger says:

/lib/ckeditor_tiki/tikiplugins/plugin.js?t=D3NA, line 37 character 6

Error: 'null' is null or not an object


Plugin editor opens OK when accessed direct from the wiki page using the edit icon.

FIXED
