RTE - Mini letter type in editing window

[joao2]

I've just upgraded to WP 2.1. Since the upgrade, the window that one uses to type a post now uses a very small letter type. How can one solve this?

I've even tried a clean install in another directory, but the result is the same. Text is so small in the MCE editor that one can hardly see it!

I've tried a clean install on another server, and it works well. Can a server not support the Javascript in WP 2.1? I think I'm going to revert to WP 2.0.7.

Replying to joao2: JavaScript is not server-based. It's a matter of styling probably. It's not a defect.

Can you provide a screensheet?

OS? browser? version?

Replying to foolswisdom:

OS? browser? version?

Although I'm not the original bug reporter, I can replicate the bug in the following enviroments:

• Windows XP Pro SP2 NL, Internet Explorer 7 EN , wp v2.1

• Windows XP Pro SP2 NL, Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 NL, wp 2.1

norbertb, thank you! Can you include a screenshot? Circling what is wrong? If you have a screenshot of what looked correct before that would be excellent too!

Saw this just today on a Windows plan at ixwebhosting for a fresh new 2.1 installation.

Here's what it looks like on ixwebhosting account:  Small text

Here's what is look like on asmallorange host:  "Normal" text

I'm using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.9) Gecko/20061206 Firefox/1.5.0.9

PHP info from ixwebhosting:

• PHP Version 4.4.1
• System Windows NT IIS100 5.0 build 2195
• Build Date Mar 14 2006 22:18:06
• Server API CGI/FastCGI

There is a stylesheet applied to the editor contents. Please verify that you have this file:

wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/wordpress.css

Andy, just confirmed that file is there and intact.

We need to be sure your browser is loading that stylesheet. Right-click in the editor, click This frame => Reload. That might get the stylesheet to load.

If not, we'll need to look at it with firebug or liveheaders or something that can sniff out the client/server interactions.

Doing the frame => reload seems to do nothing but lock the screen--I can't enter any text on the Write Post screen. I then have to reload the whole page or click on another Admin menu bar option.

View the source of that frame and see what stylesheets are linked, if any.

Looks the same from the small text to the normal text except the https on the 2nd line there

Excellent! That clue will lead to a fix. Open up tiny_mce_config.php and replace this:

if ( $_SERVER['HTTPS'] ) {

with this:

if ( $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' ) {

Great job! Thanks Andy, that fix worked.

Patch attached for the fix tested above.
