#676 I don't manage to edit CSS & templates with Chrome

Hello dear members

Few days ago, Chrome has made updates. By consequences, some users, using Chrome browser, cannot edit their CSS & templates.
This problem is not coming from our services. We hope they will find quickly a solution.
It is possible to have the same problem with Opera.

We advise you to use a different browser for the moment.

Thanks for your understanding.

I'm following the topic for their notifications Buttercup. Thank you for informing me!  

Your welcome   

Well I suppose this will give me the opportunity to use the latest version of IE that I keep updating to automatically.

It feels so dirty compared to chrome   

Oh I feel so torn. I am not really a fan of other browsers and hate using them... but my love for forumotion will probably out weight that... All well. Hopefully this gets solved soon.

Hello the all!

The problem is that our browsers are updated alone. I can not understand why Chrome did not fix it, and I suppose they do not know our difficulties. I got to create an alert for Google, but I know of no news so far.

I remain with Chrome to be faster, but I search for new best browsers. Someone suggest me something?

Thanks your the info

Dammit Google why must you ruin things for people >:O

Thanks, no wonder I couldn't edit it

This is why I have a multi use of browsers, I just can't wait until things get done, i'm an impaction person by nature, and so I chose to have Firefox as a back up for chrome, and it also proved that Firefox is better with my pc then chrome is o-o

But I will still follow up on it since I want to go back to Chrome

For right now, use Firefox or IE. I would use Firefox.

I only got Firefox and Chrome. so im using firefox now

Um, the problem isn't Google, it may be they updated yes, though it's the lack of coding knowledge that these Pro Admins / Techs have. I use Code-Mirror for a Google Chrome Application that is still 100% perfect. Google Chrome is always updating to add new additions to pre existing languages, the way it formats the language and so forth. I can tell you now as well that many other users who use Code-Mirror haven't had a problem with their codes. BTW Code-Mirror is the Library FM uses for the editor. Too many updates from FMs behalf that are crashing, why fix something when it's not broken? Also you should look into Polyfills for older browsers and to ensure your coding is not going to be deprecated by modern browsers. 
As I help over at AvacWeb, this is why I am frustrated, for I do not own a forum anymore since the updates I shut my site down. Though I do help those who are curious and I know we are going to get overloaded with questions on this. And seeing as this was posted the 20th I'm surprised we haven't already. 

IE is the worse browser to use and if it works for IE and not Chrome well something is wrong on your behalf not Chromes. I'd like to see this fixed and not just bandaid slapped on it.

Hmm... Well I don't know what to believe right now... If what your saying is true then in a way I am relieved to hear its not google. It has restored some of my faith in them. Though I have to say that it now makes me just a tad bit disappointed in forumotion...

But this Google application you mentioned... Code-Mirror... Is it something I could easily install to fix this annoying bug? If so could you possibly assist me in finding it? I tried to run a search in the Chrome Web Store but didn't see it... I have virtually no added applications though so I can't say I would know where to begin looking.

It is Chrome's issue because they updated their browser which caused this issues.  If an issue occurs in one browser and not others then it is an issue with that browser.

Code-mirror is a text editor.  Google search Chrome code-mirror.

http://edit.orgapage.de/index.php That?

I think he means this:

http://codemirror.net/

But I guess I'm confused on how to install it/use it...?

I know what code-mirror is hence why I said it. It's just funny how my Google Chrome SPECIFIC editor still works with Chrome. AND Google Chrome uses it for their Dev Tools:

CodeMirror is an open-source project shared under an MIT license. It is the editor used in the dev tools for both Firefox and Chrome, Light Table, Adobe Brackets, Bitbucket, andmany other projects.

After doing extensive research and debugging this myself for users since the proadmins or techs can't or are confused.

body.scrollLeft is deprecated in strict mode. Please use 'documentElement.scrollLeft' if in strict mode and 'body.scrollLeft' only if in quirks mode.
body.scrollTop is deprecated in strict mode. Please use 'documentElement.scrollTop' if in strict mode and 'body.scrollTop' only if in quirks mode.

These errors don't show up in JSFIDDLE.net or JSBIN.com  Which also both use Code-Mirror so maybe updating the Code-Mirror code. Here is the most recent set https://github.com/marijnh/CodeMirror

Actually a better thing to do  is update from 1.7.2 jQuery to the newest 1.11.0 Just a helper and this SHOULD fix the issue for everyone.

Temporary Fix for this:

 Go To ACP>DISPLAY>HOMEPAGE>GENERALITIES 

Add this to your homepage message

Code:

<script>window.onload=function(){
  var a = document.head.getElementsByTagName('script');
  for(i=0;i<a.length;i++){
   if((/1\.7\.2/).test(a[i].src)){
     a[i].src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js";
   }
  }
};</script>

Oh my gosh! I can actually edit my CSS again. If you were having this problem before check that it is still a problem. If it is try uninstalling then re-installing Chrome, I believe that is what fixed this for me. I didn't originally do so with the intention of fixing this but I realized after the fact that I was able to edit my CSS with out getting frustrated and having to switch browsers. Hopefully it will work for any one else experiencing this problem.   

Users,
     I always you Safari, and it works fine! Hope this helped!
