Problem with insertion of images in Firefox

[Ralix]

After pressing the button to insert an image nothing happens. There was only a white window which was never closed.

I've found out the following problem in file "/wp-admin/js/media-upload.js":

// send html to the post editor
function send_to_editor(h) {
var win = window.opener ? window.opener : window.dialogArguments;
if ( !win )
win = top;
...

“win” points to “/index.php” - but I think it should point to “/wp-admin/post-new.php”. So I've changed the code:

// send html to the post editor
function send_to_editor(h) {
/*
var win = window.opener ? window.opener : window.dialogArguments;
if ( !win )
win = top;
*/ 
var win = parent;
...

After this changes it works fine in Firefox! I don't know why it works with the original code in Opera and not in Firefox. With the modified code it works in both browsers!

Verified and okay. He's right. Using the latest Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.14 and Wordpress 2.5.1 I got these insert issues. In Wordpress 2.5, all was fine. Editing the file as he explains works. I hope this fix get implemented in the next update.

Latest js security fix in FF 2.x seems to have changed it's behavior a bit.
