When using the Kunena forum at the Lwks.com site, it is not possible to add images to a post with FF18.0
I am a regular user of the Kunena-based forum at lwks.com. Kunena is a Joomla extension. I have been using this forum using Firefox for the past two years without problem. After updating to FF18.0 yesterday, I now find that I cannot insert images or other files into forum posts. When I click on the Add File button and select a file (e.g. jpg) the path to the file on my desktop no longer appears in the Add file box and the Insert button is missing so I am unable to insert the file as an attachment to the forum post.
Chosen solution
Try changing the following 2 files:
in /components/com_kunena/template/default/js/editor.js
var input = __file.getElement('input.kfile-input')
to
var input = __file.getElement('input.kfile-input.hidden')
in /components/com_kunena/template/default/js/editor-min.js
var a=c.getElement("input.kfile-input").set
to
var a=c.getElement("input.kfile-input.hidden").set

It was an issue with Mootools library not FF18
Mootools function getElement( "input.kfile-input" ) was finding
<input class="kfile-input-textbox"> instead of <input class="kfile-input hidden">
fixed by using getElement( "input.kfile-input.hidden " ) instead
Thanks for reporting.

SOLVED
Thanks WooDzu alas it did not work on our site.
What version is your site running?
Our is MooTools 1.2.5 (from MooTools Upgrade plugin), a minified and compressed version.
Same version
I could take a quick look if you share your site's URL

you will need a user name

Thanks. Well, I can see the same issue on your site.
Replaced your editor-min.js with the one from www.lwks.com and it works fine for me on FF18. The only issue that I can think of is that when you edited the file it added some unnecessary backslashes to it, which now causes syntax errors see Firebug/Chrome inspector.
To fix it you can try replacing you js with the one from lwks.com or even better reverse your changes and use a different editor to apply the above solution.
ok will have a go with a different editor, many thanks
replaced both file with backups and modified using another editor, no more lines but still not working.
When i checked with fire bug got this line
<input type="file" name="kattachment" class="kfile-input hidden" id="kupload">
the . between input and hidden is missing although it is in both files, i am not sure where this code is but putting a . in with firebug shows up the browse button.
Any help would be appreciated again
I see the forum attachments are working back again
Still not getting them here, all we are getting is add file but when you press it it invites you to add an image you select one press open and nothing appears, before you had an extra set of commands like add and insert but nothing now. Its the code i see using firebug, the . appears to be missing but this gives a browse button which we never had before
Perhaps the editor-min.js file got cashed by your browser. Try clearing the cache or use Firebug to switch it off temporarily
Double checked now, and it looks fine from here
Modified
you were correct again, been clearing it all day, not that time, yes it has come back to life. found out some interesting stuff today, do not use ACE FTP to edit files a sit seems to add lots of /////////////////////
and keep clearing cache. Many thanks for your patience and help WooDzu
Glad to hear it's fixed.
the ADD FILE button works with Firefox v17esr or older but NOT with v18.0 or newer...
