rich:editor freezing rich:tab in 4.1 M1

[teri-chan]

Hi,

i am using Richfaces 4.1 M1, and i have a TabPanel with two tabs, one of them containing a rich:editor.

As long as I stay on this tab, no problem, but if i switch tabs and then come back to the first tab (the one containing the editor), the tabpanel freezes, and i can't switch tabs anymore.

I tried removing my components one after another, the problem is definitely coming from the rich:editor.

What could be the source of this problem?

Thanks

I have more information.

Inspecting the page with Firebug, i can see an error in the console when the tab freezes:

$this.ckeditor is null

$this.ckeditor.updateElement();

Looking at the source in editor.js.jsf, the line that caused the error is:

rf.ui.Editor = function(componentId, domBinding, options) {

[...]

        this.__updateElement = function() {

            $this.ckeditor.updateElement();

        }

I don't know if it's related, but i just saw another strange behavior.

When i try to change tab in IE9 (without compatibility mode), instead of switching tab, the second tab appears under the first one. If i use compatibilty mode, it works juste fine. I thought RF 4 was IE9-compatible?

Both problems solved, using switchType="client"...
