Rich Text (FCK) Editor Issue

I am getting a JavaScript error using the Rich Text Editor (FCK) which ships with ColdFusion 8.

In Internet Explorer, there are times when the FCK Editor works properly -- but other times it simply does not appear. This is the same code in the same form (in a cfwindow).

Firebug reports a JavaScript error along the lines of "FCK is not defined," but the editor seems to work properly in FireFox and appears every time it is called.

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Thank you

    The technical cause of this behavior may be attributed to how an iframe loads...

    Yes, I've experienced exactly same issue (it's a real confidence-killing thing to your new users especially public users...).

    The second thing I STRONGLY dislike about Fckeditor is that the integration was not thoughtful, the default zillions of featurs is not necessary for most users, at least my users, the supposedly customization via ToolBar="Basic" was improperly implemented in that it gives you what it considers "basic" instead of what you define what they are...

    Thirdly, with either of the two options, it loads 376 files spanning over 51 folders anyway (BIG mother LOAD!), so BLOATED, it's a sure performance-killer.

    I'm seeking a solution of my own... hopefully it would work out in a day or two (and maybe longer...)

    I am not sure but I think it is reported as FCKEditor has some issues in cfwindow. I would suggest to search forum for the threads.
