TYPO3 Core

Wow, OS is WIndows. Now, what browser are you using?

It works for me with Firefox 1.5 on Linux btw...

What is the generated HTML source code of this page?

Browser is Internet Exlorer 6.02. Incidentally I have just checked it in Fireworks on my setup and it does work fine there, so it definitely sounds like an IE specific bug.

I just tested it with IE 6.0.2900 and erverything worked just fine...

So maybe you could try with different setups (both server and client) and report which platforms it works on and which not.

For the moment, you might want to just disable the context menu in
User->Setup->"Disable Popup Context Menus"

This shows the options which are normally available in the context menu, in the small top frame.

I can confirm that this bug exists. I was able to duplicated it on my machine as well. IE6 + windows.

To duplicated the bug, follow these steps:

1. Open filelist module in backend (logged in as admin, using IE6)
2. Notice that the click menu works in the center frame. Click on a folder that has files in it.
3. Clicking on the file icon in the right frame brings up a javascript error -- clickmenu doesn't appear.

What's strange is that if you click on a folder icon in the right frame (eg., when the contents of a folder is another folder), then it seems to work fine.

yes, i have the same problem, i use ms explorer (6.0.2900.2180).
i have tested it in versions 4.0 and 4.0.1, now i'm downloading 4.0.2.
in mozilla (1.5.0.6) it works fine.
the server is linux, debian etch 2.6.15 amd64
(take a look at the screenshot attached in this issue)

UPDATE: the error is still present in 4.0.2

I confirm this Problem:

With Firefox there are no Problems
Update Typo3 3.8.0 -----> Typo3 4.0.1
With a fresh Installation of Typo4.0.1 also no Problem with IE

Seems like the AJAX content is not utf8-encoded. XML must always be UTF-8! Attached is a patch that fixes this. Please test.

Michael, your Patch fixed the Problem. Edit works now in Fileadmin on Updates Typo3 3.8.0 ---> Typo3 4.0.n in IE 6.0. Thanks a lot.

Please excuse the late Answer. I was down with influenza for some Days.

Fixed in TYPO3 4.0.3
