html content editor won't edit.

I just set up the company portal using mojoPortal and so far everything is okay except for one minor glitch that I hope someone has already solved.
Occasionally when editing html content the editor will not work.  When I hit the Source button I can edit the raw source, but when I return to the normal editor is doesn't allow me to add/edit/delete any text.  This behavior is very intermittant.  It isnt' a bit deal for myself, but I plan on letting department heads administrate their own areas of the portal, and I can't announce the fact that they can do that until I solve this problem...

Here are the system details:

MojoPortal svn 976
RHEL 4
Apache 2.0.52-22
MySql 5.0.16-0
Mono 1.1.15
XSP 1.1.15
mod_mono 1.1.14

Any ideas why?

Re: html content editor won't edit.

This could be unrelated but I find that if the first thing I try to do in the editor window is delete something (e.g. with the backspace or delete key) it won't work.  I workaround it by typing a space first and then deleting it.  This is with Linux Firefox 1.0.x or 1.5.x as my browser.  I haven't tried with other browsers.  The problem doesn't appear to occur here at mojoportal.com but is appearing at brettle.com which is running the mojoportal 1.x branch on Mono.

Re: html content editor won't edit.

Yes I have occasionally seen this problem as well but it is hard to pin down the cause. It seems to only happen running on mono but it only happens sometimes which makes it more difficult to diagnose.

Re: html content editor won't edit.

I figured it was a mono thing because it never happens locally when testing under IIS.
I'm always afraid to upgrade mono to fix one problem because it always causes two new ones!   Our portal has been up for almost a year now, and users use it to approve invoices digitally, etc, so it's now a critical system to the company, so any mono upgrade is a tense moment...

BTW the conversion from Cuyahoga to mojoPortal went so smoothly.  I switched over Monday morning and haven't had a single call.  The next part is training the users to post their own files/articles instead of calling IT.

Thanks Joe!
