    Hi All,

    I’m trying to set up TinyMCE in Modx 1.0.0.
    I’ve set the interface and features in config to ’custom’ and appended the menu to include ’tablecontrols’ so I can see the insert table button and the other table options.
    But when I go to insert a table it loads the table window, then when you press insert nothing happens other than the table window refreshes..

    when i check the code view after. All thats been inserted in to the code is ’<p>&nbsp;</p>’

    Has anyone else encountered this / know of a solution?

    Thanks

      did you add ",table" at the end of the list of the Custom Plugins field, too?

        Hi sharkbait,

        Yes I have this is what the plugin/custom buttons strings look like.

        plugins: style,advimage,advlink,searchreplace,print,contextmenu,paste,fullscreen,nonbreaking,xhtmlxtras,visualchars,media,table
        custom buttons row 3: tablecontrols

        The theme is set to custom

        Thanks

          Well I’ve found a workaround..

          There is clearly an issue with tinyMCE itself.
          It doesnt work on the following browsers: ie6, safari, chrome

          but appears to work fine on firefox, and ie8 (I havent tried ie7 but knowing ie7 it probably wont work).

          I hope someone else finds this useful.
