If you ever want to get no scrollbars in JCE, mosCE, or tinyMCE for just IE then add “overflow:hidden;” to your template’s css for the body tag.  I don’t know why you would want that but we didn’t.  For whatever reason, a client of ours had this in their template and we couldn’t get scrollbars.  It baffled us.  We talked to the creator of JCE, searched the JCE forums, Joomla forums, and googled the hell out of it.  No answer.  So we decided that we should post on the Joomla! forum and hope for the best.  12 days later and our prayers where answered.  dartheide was kind of enough to post his fix.  Just goes to show you the importance of a good community. God I love open-source.

So I was installing JCE 1.0.4 on an IIS server today and I ran into the error:

CGI Error:
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers.

After some snooping around I found out that it had to do with an image on line 190 of the plugin.html.php. If you remove the height and width from the image tag then everything works. Don’t ask me why, it just does. And why does this happen on an IIS server and not a Linux based one? I don’t know.

So I got a fresh install of Joomla! and a fresh install of JCE. No problems so far. I wrote my content, put some anchors in, and made a link from the top of the page to the anchors. Everything looked great in the backend but when I tested out the anchors it was sending me to the frontpage as if the anchor was there. After some snooping I found out that there seems to be some problems with JCE and mossef. The quick fix is to just turn off mossef. There is some good posting on it at the Joomla! Forum.
