The Universal Key problem is due to the plugin being removed in FCKEditor 2.4 and above. Someone has made a plugin based from previous code.

More info available here.

Hello. I just want to add that the same error is present at the demo.dotnetnuke.com site.
Sign up and try it yourself.

This error:

A critical error has occurred.
String cannot be of zero length. Parameter name: oldValue

In my opinion needs to be addressed ASAP.  The text editor provider is one of the MOST WIDELY used parts of DotNetNuke. Many, many, many, many modules and parts of  the DNN framework utilize this core piece of the system.  The fact that the image inserts do not work is very disappointing.  Also, I notice that in a previous post in this thread the FCKProvider.dll has been fixed "unofficially", but it really needs to be addressed "officially". 

Second, once it is addressed "officially", I think it should be included in an immediate patch.  There are many people who have waited to start using DotNetNuke until version 4.5.0 was released, and when they finally download and start using DNN to find that the image insert doesn't work on the Editor, it can be very discouraging to new users.

Now, this post is not to be considered a flame in any way, because I think that the work that has been done to incorporate the FCKEditor into DotNetNuke has added TREMENDOUS value to the project.  I'm just saying that since it is now the default provider in version 4.5.0 and going forward, along with that comes a heightened responsibility to the community to make sure that this core piece works very well.

Thanks!

But FCK was working very well with 4.4.1 (I just had to install the file in common for IECustom, otherwise I had this problem of popup behind the main window and it was not possible to select a picture).
{...}

Hello,

My problem is SOLVED !! Thanks to all people who investigated the issue and helped me a lot (Locopon, ErikVB, John, ...)
Since I have the child window which always appear BEHIND the parent window (when trying to select an image), I was forced to use an "old obsolete trick" (substituting the fck_dialog_common.js file which is in FckhtmlEditorProvider/IECustom/IECustom folder).
==> THIS CREATES the trouble (the javascript error + critical error on my installation). Because this file is obsolete.
Consequently: DO NOT USE this obsolete fck_dialog_common.js file (the one located in FckhtmlEditorProvider/IECustom/IECustom folder. Always use the original one)
If you experience the same problem than me, do the following (I copy-paste the trick that Locopon sent me and solves the problem):

1) First you need to use the original .js file (and not the one located in FckhtmlEditorProvider/IECustom)
2) clear you browser cache as it saves the file for future uses
3) open the original fck_dialog_common.js (it must be the one from the current version of the editor....otherwise it will cause javascript errors)
4) locate the function: function OpenFileBrowser( url, width, height )
5) locate the code inside that function after the following comments:

                // The following change has been made otherwise IE will open the file
                // browser on a different server session (on some cases):
                //
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;831678
                // by Simone Chiaretta.

6) and insert the following code after that:

                if (oEditor.window.showModalDialog) {
                        sOptions = "status:no;resizable:yes" ;
                        sOptions += ";dialogWidth:" + width + 'px';
                        sOptions += ";dialogHeight:" + height + 'px' ;
                        sOptions += ";dialogLeft:" + iLeft + 'px' ;
                        sOptions += ";dialogTop:" + iTop + 'px' ;
                        var oRet =
oEditor.window.showModalDialog(url,"FCKBrowseWindow",sOptions) ;
                        if (oRet) SetUrl( oRet );
                }
                else{

7) The close the last bracket after the original code that opens the window
(Note: it can be changed from version to version)

                else
                        alert( oEditor.FCKLang.BrowseServerBlocked ) ;
                }        //<<<<<------Add this one... the above is the
original code to show you where

8) That is all.

Note that you will have to do this for every new version of the editor, and
the original code could be different each time
