CKEditor/Smartphone

Anyone have any experience with ckeditor on smartphone Firefox and Chrome?

The  script bit which is supposed to turn a form textarea field into an editing area doesn't seem to work:

<script type="text/javascript">

CKEDITOR.replace('case_studies_text');

</script>

Works just fine on desktop and tablet using Firefox and Chrome.

If it doesnt work then it doesnt work (I just need to determined if anyone else has encounterd the same issue) I can put a message up to say please update using your desktop or tablet browser.

I dont usually check the admin area on a smartphone to be honest as I'm not sure if its the right kind of device to be doing any updates in. I have several other sites using ckeditor so I guess I ought to check and see what the status of the admin forms are on smartphone, might provide some clues.

Cheers

Os

    Thanks Ben,

    Ive just updated to 4.8 l think, whatever the latest version is, so l'II check it out again tomorrow and see what happens to the textareas.

    If that still has not had any effect l might look into enabling it if l can understand what the workflow to do so is. Im not too worried about the admin part of the site for smartphones but if l can get it to work correctly without jumping through hoops that would be a bonus.

    Updating to the latest ckeditor version corrected the issues in Anroid smartphone browsers.

    Seems as though ckeditor was disabled on Anroid smartphones, at least the vesrion I am currently deploying. I'll update to a later version and see if it has been made compatible yet. If not I'll just forget about it.
