# [Plugin: Aviary Editor] JS error?

 * First this wp-installation of WP is dirty but since I needed api key for domain
   I guess I cant test in more clean environment. Why hold back I say!
 * So there seems to be a JS error every time a feature is activated.
 * TypeError: m is null
    Line 150 in father.js
 * I tested in IE9 where it goes:
 * SCRIPT5007: Unable to get value of the property ‘scrollLeft’: object is null 
   or undefined
    father.js, line 150 character 437
 * Some feature do not work like draw. After selected pencil or circle it seems 
   to be invisible. No action on image. Same with text though input box does show
   up. Text is unreadable, as if font is wrong? See [http://imm.io/zwUb](http://imm.io/zwUb)
 * Also if I select default extension images are saved a TXT files, [http://imm.io/zwUQ](http://imm.io/zwUQ)
   Seems to work when set to PNG and JPG. Columns are not normal due to a Admin 
   column editor but should not matter.
 * I think all this has to do with the JS error even if some features like crop 
   and effects work.
 * Also a feature request. If you have 100 items in media library you have to scroll
   way up to get to window. May be you could add an invisible or auto- “to the top”
   feature. It got me even after I figured out where window was, heh.
 * Hmm I checked with Firebug. Input box for text is set to only 20px with font 
   size 20px. Well that can be fixed with own CSS if required. A bit of padding 
   for `#avpw_text_area` etc. and text become crystal clear. Just weird CSS defaults–
   worse is no action when clicking “Add text”.
 * Hmm2 – I disabled WP Jump Menu and suddenly I could add text. New image and then
   I could not. Same errors. Can see where this is going. Will post once I have 
   excluded everything. Well if script is sensitive to other plugins JS it might
   be worth mentioning anyway.

 * Well it seems to work in Firefox, for what ever reason. I still get that JS error
   in IE9 – and cache has been cleared 5 times. Everything else is clean regarding
   JS errors, no PHP ones either.
 * Also works in Chrome. I could test IE8 but not bothered enough. Would be nice
   to test on a 100% new WP install but they want that API key for domain.
 * Not yet convinced there is no JS issue, may be just a tiny one?, but probably
   very local.
 * Their web demo [http://www.aviary.com/](http://www.aviary.com/) works in IE9 
   so that is good I guess.
 * Rest of issues + 1 request still goes.

 * Text box is fixed.
 *     ```
       input[type="text"], input[type="password"], input[type="number"], input[type="search"], input[type="email"], input[type="url"], textarea {
       -moz-box-sizing: border-box; }
       ```
   
 * which I am happy to say is code from WP itself not me 🙂
 * Change to
    `input[type="text"], input[type="password"], input[type="number"],
   input[type="search"], input[type="email"], input[type="url"], textarea { -moz-
   box-sizing: inherit; }`
 * and it looks like in their web-demo.
 * May be -webkit prefix should be used as well, besides regular box-sizing [http://caniuse.com/#feat=css3-boxsizing](http://caniuse.com/#feat=css3-boxsizing)
 *     ```
       .avpw .avpw_text_input {
       -moz-box-sizing: inherit;
       -webkit-box-sizing: inherit;
       box-sizing: inherit;
       }
       ```
   
 * should do.

 * Details of this CSS clash is in /wp-admin/css/wp-admin.dev.css – at the top. 
   There is also an entry for IE8.
 *     ```
       /* include margin and padding in the width calculation of input and textarea */
       input[type="text"],
       input[type="password"],
       input[type="number"],
       input[type="search"],
       input[type="email"],
       input[type="url"],
       textarea {
       	-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
       	-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
       	-ms-box-sizing: border-box; /* ie8 only */
       	box-sizing: border-box;
       }
       ```

 * Thanks for the feedback,
 * The JS errors is something that i can’t reproduce and if i could it’s probably
   something with the editor’s JS which means the only way to fix it is to report
   to the good guys at aviary.
 * AS for the input boxes a CSS fix is included in version 0.2.
 * The feature of fixed position of the editor is granted and included in version
   0.2 (no more mad scrolling 🙂 )
 * And last the txt file issue is something that comes for the aviary’s server which
   has a quick fix but will only save in PNG format.
 * thanks again.

 * Thanks, most seem fixed. Is a nice editor, fits right in to that space.
