COM_refresh not redirecting


Turner

I'm using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041020 Firefox/0.10.1

When I load TinyMCE wysiwyg editor in the header.thml (and then activate it in a template), COM_refresh stops redirecting (it is called by line 1203 in admin/story.php). The code simply hits the COM_refresh function, then returns to story.php, ending at the "exit;" located at line 1205.

What does COM_refresh do, other than redirect? And why do you think it stops when I load the editor (it redirects fine once I disable the editor)?

Help appreciated. I'm tearing my hair out.

Why? That version is old. Which, in internet terms, translates to "dangerous". Upgrade to 1.0.2 already.

This will also solve your problem which, IIRC, was a bug in earlier versions of Firefox (I'm on 1.0.2 and don't have it, FWIW).

Well thanks. I will upgrade. I am on Fedora Core 3 and have never really upgraded anything on Linux before. Scared to do it, being a former Windows user. But if it will solve the problem, I'll suffer through it.

Thanks again!

To get TinyMCE to refresh with Firefox (Gentoo Linux FireFox 1.0.2-r1, compiled from source) I had to change my COM_refresh to:
Text Formatted Code

function COM_refresh( $url )
{
return "<html><head><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">redirTime = "100"; redirURL = "$url";
function redirTimer()
{ self.setTimeout ("self.location.href = redirURL;",redirTime); }
</script></head><body onLoad="redirTimer()"></body></html>";
}

Where do I find that function, is it the one in lib-common.php around line 2592 (in GL1.3.11) ?

In theory all functions that begin with COM_ are indeed in lib-common.php
Yes I am mental.

I had this same problem with several versions of Mozilla and Firefox. What triggered it was the usage of a graphical editor (verified at the time with fckeditor and htmlarea). It didn't even matter if the editor was on the Geeklog site or on some other unrelated site. Confused I changed the COM_refresh function to this:
Text Formatted Code

function COM_refresh( $url )
{
    header ("Location: " . str_replace ( '&amp;', '&', $url) );
    return "<html><head><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=$url"></head></html>n";
}

Were you able to get stories to save? When I engage Tinymce and then try to save a story, it blanks out the introtext field, causing an error. But when I remove the mce stuff from the editor form, everything is fine.

I think this link actually describes my problem and how to fix it, but I can't understand how to relate it to Geeklog.

Can anyone help here. I have everything working except I just can't save the story! AH!!!! Banging your head

Hi,

I had the same problem on my site but after using "Kelvin" code it was working perfect and I was using Firefox 1.0.6 – just need to add .. ... before quotations on the second line,
like this :
Text Formatted Code
  function COM_refresh( $url )
{
    header ("Location: " . str_replace ( '&', '&', $url) );
    return "<html><head><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0; URL=$url\"></head></html>n";
}
