# Cross-Site Scripting Error

 * I just installed WordPress 2.2 through BlueHost and Fantastico. I was working
   on modifying my .htaccess file which I had tons of problems with so removed installation
   and added WP back in a few times, including wiping the whole site clean and doing
   it again. Over the process, my Visual Text Editor broke in IE6. It does work 
   in FireFox but I don’t use Firefox, I use IE and really need it to work correctly
   as I’m going to be using it quite a lot. Or I would like to. 🙂
 * I don’t think BlueHost updated their WordPress 2.2 download over the weekend (
   although I suppose they could have) and did something to the WYSIWYG (Rich Text
   Editor). I think it’s my site… But I can’t figure out how to fix it.
 * If I turn it off in my User Profile, I can type. But I would really prefer to
   use the WYSIWYG editor!
 * Any thoughts on how to fix it? My IE toolbar on the bottom left says ‘Done, with
   errors’ and I can’t put my mouse cursor into the Rich Text Editor box. The box
   is just not ‘open’. I also can’t click on any of the icons on the Editor (like
   the bold icon and add an image – all of them are broken).
 * Here is the error I get when I click on the bottom left ‘error’ icon in my browser:
 * Line: 176
    Char: 290 Error: Access is Denied Code: 0 URL: http:// mybigbearvacation.
   com/wp-admin/post-new.php
 * Please advise if anyone has a good fix for this?? Thank you!

 * What does this have to do with XSS. Nothing. Have a look here at a [search](http://wordpress.org/search/wysiwyg+not+working+2.2?forums=1)
   for the problem your experiencing.

 * Hi Jeremy,
 * In the BlueHostForums a mod suggested that it was XSS which was why I used that
   for the title.
 * Thank you for the link though. I’ve been wasting so much time on this error for
   the past three days, searching the past threads as well. I finally found a link
   through your search above in the past two hours that was the simplest fix.
 * Here is [the thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/102108?replies=10#post-573174&id=102108)
   that had the answer for me if anyone else finds this thread.
 * THANK YOU!
