Hi,

What web browser do you use? Did you check it under other browsers?

Lukasz,

I use IE6 but I didn't try with other browsers.
I have 2 sites using 3.5, one on a local machine for demo (XP familial + IE6) and another one online. I work on this last one with X¨P pro and IE6.

I have the same problem with both of this sites.
If the pointer is over an XML field or if it's outside and I write in a XML field, the bottom (object in relation + send for publishing button) "shuffle/blink/deasapear".

That don't cause crash or any bug but I have to find the right moment to catch the send for publishing button ;)

Hi

I have also noticed this blinking. It only happens when using IE. The problem seem to be some conflict with OE and the new administration interface. I have told Wenyue about this, so he will take a look at it when he gets some time.

I will write a bugreport about this for others to see.

By the way, which versions of Internet Exporer (see help->about), Online Editor and eZ publish do you use?

Hi,

I have found the reason which caused the problem. It is because of the following code in css file design/admin/stylesheets/site.css

div.box-content div.block
{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0.5em;
}

Change it to

div.box-content div.block
{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;
}

will fix the problem, but may have some other minor side effect ( I haven't noticed big differences in admin design after changes ). Our css expert will try to find a better solution.

wenyue

Hi again.

The change in the CSS solve the problem for 3.5.0 but not completly for 3.5.1.
With 3.5.1, it keep on blinking when I'm on roll over an XML text field.
After a clic in this field, it become stable even if I clic again in another field (or outside).

Laurent.

Hi,

Could you try to remove margin: 0; in this css block or comment out the whole css block.

div.box-content div.block
{
    /*margin: 0; */
    padding: 0 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;
}

Best regards,
wenyue

Hi Wenyue,

I tryied both solutions partially or totaly comment out the CSS block but it still the same.
The solution seems to be somewhere else...

(3.5.1) ...another thing :

When I insert a custom tag (standard factbox) or an header (heading 1)and while I'm over an XML texte field that flickers continuously.

...

Ps : I'm trying to report every "bad" experience to isolate the problem quickly.

Hi,

I guess the problem might be the Disable editor button. Try to move it from bottom to the top again ( like 3.4 ), this can be done by edit extension/ezdhtml/design/standard/templates/content/datatype/edit/ezxmltext_ezdhmtl.tpl
Moving the following code:

<div class="block">
<input class="button" type="submit" name="CustomActionButton[{$attribute.id}_disable_editor]" value="{'Disable editor'|i18n('ezdhtml','design/standard/content/datatype')}" />
</div>

right after line <!-- DHTML editor textarea field -->.
Hope this will help!

Best regards,
wenyue

Hi Wenyue,

Not successfull, so I just remove the button.
Now it's quietter ;) (this button cause the problem).

I understand that you can't reproduce the problem, so you can send what ever you want as solution.

I'll test them.

Hi,

Have you tried the combination:
1. Changed site.css like following

div.box-content div.block
{
    /*margin: 0; */
    padding: 0 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;
}

2. Moved the "disable editor" button to the top.

Best regards,
wenyue

div.box-content div.block
{
    /*margin: 0; */
    padding: 0 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;
}

and

/*div.box-content div.block
{
    margin: 0; 
    padding: 0 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;
}*/

Hi,
I have the same problem.
Specially when it comes to marking bold/italic text in one of the xml-text areas. Or if i create a list in one of the text areas. The other text area then blinks hysterically. I've tried the buggfixes above but without luck. It doesn't help moving the button or changing the site.css.

EZ: 3.5.0
OE: 2.0
IE: 6.0

In Mozilla it all works fine... Maybe the bugg is in the ezeditor.js and not the css-files? On the other hand Mozilla and IE has a lot of differances when it comes to working with layers.

Hope you'll fix this as soon as possible!

Hi again,
I might have found a solution to the blinking problem in OE 2.0 with IE.
I have tried it in ez publisher versions 3.5.0 and 3.5.1.

This is what i did:

In design/admin/stylesheets/site.css

I added <b>width: 95%;</b> to these classes:

1. div.box-content div.block

2. div.controlbar div.block

3. div.context-block

I'm not sure if all 3 is neccessary to change, but try it.

I am not sure that this solution is the best to use, but I got rid of the blinking problem and that's what I wanted.

Good luck!

/Anja
