TYPO3 Core

I am not able to reproduce this issue.

What options have you set in the Extension Manager and what do you have in Page TSConfig?

I have this problem too. Win 7 FF 3.6.12 and TYPO3 4.4.4. In IE8 it loads but I can't make links. On my Macbook FF it works ok. Seems be related to my PC? Got no clue what to do...

Thx to Stanislas I found the cause of my problem... in my .htaccess I rewrote non-www urls to www urls via

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

This resulted in "The editor is being loaded. Please wait..." but only for an url without www. So via http://mysite.com/typo3

Like I said it works fine on my Macbook but in Windows this causes problems.

@Paul,

The RTE stylesheets are not accessible on your site.

@Paul: Were you able to resolve this issue?

I have the problem only in Firefox. Here the troubleshooting list:

A new install of typo3 (ver. 4.4.5.)
And I still have the same problem.

Why people posting there problems into mine Issue?
Please only post a message if you have a suggestion for my problem.

I just had the very same problem after updating to 4.4.x and the solution was to uninstall date2cal. No JS error showed up, but now the editor is loading again. A datepicker is integrated in core for quite some time now, so no need for this extension in the backend.

"date2cal" extension is not installed.

Same problem here with
Typo3 4.4.6
FF 3.6.13

RTE works in IE8 for me, though.

I removed a healthy potion of my RTE related page TSconfig and now it loads again in FF. I haven't tested it further which line breaks the RTE for FF but can provide a text file with the removed lines.

Please upload copy of the Page TSConfig.

@Andreas Otto †:
I tried installing "date2cal" extension with 4.4.7 (despite the warning). There was no problem loading the RTE in FF, nor in IE8.

Sorry for the delay. I had the same problem again on an other site, and had to "fix" it in the same way to be able to work again.

I tried using the demo config from
typo3_src-4.5.0/typo3/sysext/rtehtmlarea/res/demo/pageTSConfig.txt
(just the lengthy RTE.default part), but that just made the problem reappear.

It's just strange that it first occurs without a change to the page TS config.

We did some further tests and it seems that the button
inserttag
was causing the issues. When we put it in showButtons, the rte didn't load; after hiding it with hideButtons the rte worked fine again.

@Sacha:when you add inserttag in showButtons, do you get an error on the JS console?

HI experts,
I also got this error in IE and FF - I have not changed anything.
What I have to do to fix this?
Please help as soon as possible.
thanks

I fought the same problem in 4.5.3. It appeared to me that the setting of config.baseURL caused the problem. In my case, I have a webserver www.domain.org; when I accessed htmlArea RTE in the FE of http://www.domain.org/, it worked; however, loading the same page from http://domain.org/ gave the same error as described above. My template setup had defined confing.baseURL=www.domain.org. Removing that definition solved the problem for both domains.
