FCKeditor bugs in Dokeos implementation - the debugging process

For the sake of remembering myself of what I did, not being an expert in JavaScript coding but still needing to fix that placeholder bug in Dokeos, I'm writing this part as a real log, not really a well-presented article, but I'm still publishing it in case it would help someone else. In Dokeos, we use FCKeditor. The first problem that comes to mind is that I don't know exactly which version.

Dokeos 1.8.5 and FCKeditor

A bunch of Dokeos users have reported problems with FCKeditor in Dokeos 1.8.5. The first one is with the creation of links in Firefox 3 (somehow the JavaScript was wrong there). This one has already been fixed in preparation of the next version of Dokeos. The other ones are all related to the management of special resources (flv, sounds, swf) which seem to be a little bit less reliable than in Dokeos 1.8.4. Be reassured that we are working on this right now.
