copied!<p>The browser executes scripts in the order they're loaded, not written. Your <strong>immediate</strong> scripts -- <code>tinyMCE.init(...)</code> and <code>$(document.ready(...));</code> -- can execute before the files finish loading.</p> <p>So, the problem is probably network latency -- especially with 6 separate scripts (each requiring a different HTTP conversation between the browser and server). So, the browser is probably trying to execute <code>tinyMCE.init()</code> before <strong>tiny_mce.js</strong> has finished being parsed and <code>tinyMCE</code> is fully defined.</p> <p>If don't have Firebug, <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843" rel="nofollow noreferrer">get it</a>. ;)<br> It has a <strong>Net</strong> tab that will show you how long it's taking all of your scripts to load.</p> <hr> <p>While you may consider the <code>setTimeout</code> to be duct taping, it's actually a decent solution. Only problem I see is that it assumes 1 second will always fix. A fast connection and they could see the pause. A slow connection and it doesn't wait long enough -- you still get the error.</p> <p>Alternatively, you might be able to use <code>window.onload</code> -- assuming jQuery isn't already using it. (Can anyone else verify?)</p> <pre><code>window.onload = function () { tinyMCE.init(...); $(document).ready(...); }; </code></pre> <hr> <p>Also, was that a direct copy?</p> <pre><code><script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ /* jQuery initialization */ } </script> </code></pre> <p>It's missing the <code>)</code> ending <code>ready</code>:</p> <pre><code><script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ /* jQuery initialization */ }) </script> </code></pre> <p>Missing punctuation can cause plenty of damage. The parser is just going to keep reading until it finds it -- messing up anything in between.</p>
