preInitDialog parameter, IE 7 and jquery 1.3.2

[edik]

I used one the basic example coming with the Package wymeditor-0.5-rc-1.tar.gz and replaced the jquery.js (wich is 1.2.6) with the version 1.3.2.
Then I added the parameter to the wymeditor initalisation code, so the source in the example 01-basic.html now looks like this:

Code: Select all

   jQuery(function() {
       jQuery('.wymeditor').wymeditor({
          preInitDialog: function(wym, wdw) {
            alert('will init the dialog now');
         }
       });
   });   


If I click on Insert-image or -table button the preInitDialog function works fine in all browsers exept IE (6,7,8). There is no error, just no alert. I wondered why this is not working... anyone any idea?

Hi edik, and welcome to the WYMeditor forum!
The postInitDialog callback should be executed in whichever supported browser you use. Have you tried emptying the browser cache?

Cheers!

After some debugging I found out the problem is in the jquery source code, in the function "isFunction". It shows a different behaviour compared to the jquery version 1.2.6.

I think I also found the right Ticket in the jQuery bugtracker.

Hi again!
The bug you mentioned is only relevant if you try to use a native IE "function" as postInitDialog callback. If that's the case you should simply wrap that native "function" in a new anonymous function to work around the issue, as proposed in the comments.

Cheers!
