Popup dialogues not working when asset_host is set. about tinymce-rails

[spohlenz]

I'm not sure this is a problem that can be surmounted fully due to the same origin policy.

If you are serving your main files from www.example.com and your assets from assets.example.com, you may be able to get around it by declaring in a script tag within your HTML:

document.domain = 'example.com';

You would need to add this to the top of tiny_mce_popup.js also (and there's no easy way to do this currently).

If anyone else can shed any light, it would be appreciated.

Thanks you your response.

Tinymce do seem to be working on it so it will run from a different host, but for the time being I don't really want to go around editing the gem files.

Is there any option I could set so Tinymce is servered locally (even if I have an asset host set), as this would be preferable for now? I am currently using the inline

<%= tinymce_assets %>

as most user do not edit my site, so is a waste including it in the main assets file.

@obduk You can explicitly set the config.tinymce.base config option to /assets/tinymce to ensure that the asset host is not used.

@spohlenz but isnt setingconig.tinymce.base to assets/tinymce when I have assets across domains will be affect on performance?
