Is anyone having a problem with using the html editor in moodle in the finished and new release of Firefox 1.5, I upgraded today and now when I click on the icon in the html editor in moodle to go to fullscreen mode it opens a blank screen window rather than one with the editor.
I have reported this as a possible bug in Firefox to their feedback agent.
I am using a dell d610 laptop with winXP Pro and SP2

Hi, Andrew:
I have expreienced the exact same thing since my Firefox 1.5 upgrade yesterday. I thought maybe it was by AdBlock extension and have disabled it to no avail. Will try disabling the popup blocker next to see what happens.
I suspect this may not fix it, however, as the popup itself seems to work just fine (the window opens and a view of the source code seems to show all of the necessary bits and bobs to get it working). Suspect that FF is the actual problem and hope that there will be a patch/fix for this soon!

I have the same problem with Firefox 1.5 on running on Mac OS 10.4.3. It started when I upgraded to Firefox 1.5 about a week and half ago. I'm running Moodle 1.5.2 (2005060220) It seems odd to me that the html editor/toolbar works in the unenlarged window, but gives an empty window when I click the "Enlarge Editor".

The problem seem to be in cloneObject function ( fullscreen.php ). The parent object doesn't get fully cloned.
Current fix brakes IE so it's not usable . I just love javascript #%&!!

There's an additional problem as well. In Firefox 1.5 a button 3 click (middle button) brings up a scroll cursor. Under Unix, button 3 normally acts as the "paste" button.
Cut and paste is vital to me, enhanced scrolling is no big deal. I don't know if this is a Firefox thing or a Moodle thing, but I suspect it must be from Moodle, since MB3 works fine in normal text windows in Firefox.
Between this and the cloneObject issue, I may have to drop back to Firefox 1.0.7.

Janne, Hi - am i reading you correctly - we currently can't use HTML Editor with IE?
I've got a query outlining a more extensive range of problems using the editor with IE (see http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=36100 ).
Any assistance on this would be appreciated.
I'm a newbie to this moodle life!
Regards,
Mike

I looked in Mozilla's bugzilla and found a bug report for this. It appears to be a problem in HTMLarea, but one of the comments in the bug report had a workaround.

In the file /lib/editor/htmlarea.php:
Make the same changes in lib/editor/popups/fullscreen.php. I've tested it with one of the lab computers that has Firefox 1.5, and everything superficially seems to work. I still have to re-upgrade my own machine back to FF 1.5 and live with it a while before I'm sure.

This:
if (obj.constructor.toString().indexOf("function Function(") == 1) {
you should change into this:
if (obj.constructor.toString().indexOf("function Function(") >= 0) {
