Hello Cathal or Sebestian or anyone else who answers questions on this forum.

On a previous thread I mentioned the fact that even now with the new DNN7 upgrade I still have to go into extensions and have to untick the supports popups within the edit controller of this module in order for the editor.css file to be used in the style drop down menu rather than the default.css file being dropped in this menu.  I would love to see this problem resolved so I can use my custom css classes when the html module is able to support popups so this is something I would love to see implemented in this version since it wasn't in the last version. 

Having said the above as a result of not being able to utilize the editor.css file unless support for popups are turned off when editing a module it goes to its own page.  In DNN 6 this wasn't a problem as I could turn the html editor text area background into any color I chose via the editor.css file as it relates to tweaking the body tag.  Now after the upgrade to DNN 7 I find that when working in firefox 17 I like the new behavior I am getting where the background image that is pulled from the body tag found in either the skin.css file or the editor.css file turns to white when hovering over the text area to edit content and than when moused away from that area dims to the background image as indicated in the body tag.  I think that gives it a nice touch however having said that in IE 9 it is a bit quirky.  Basically what happens here is that when you hover away from the text area it dims to the background image of the body tag which is good.  The bad thing is when hovering and gaining focus in the html editor itself it does not turn to a solid white background but stays dimmed makin it very hard to see since I am using a transparent png file for the background of my page in the body tag.  I do notice if I mouse around the edges of the html editor it will turn white but if I am inside the editor text area or away from it the area stays dimmed.  I think it would be great if the behavior in IE simulated that of firefox.  Also I noticed their is no dimming effect when using iE 8 and below.  I suspect this is because in order to get this functionality to work some css 3 is being used by which ie8 does not support.  If the effect that is seen in firefox 17 could be replicated in IE 8 and above the same way it works in firefox that would be ideal.

Any ideas of something I might try in order to get IE to behave similiar to firefox in this respect.

Thanks,

Bo
