[Done v1.3.5b] 1.3.5 atal Error if not using the FCKEditor Plugin

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: fckeditor in /home/tvclass/public_html/admin/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php on line 403

When trying to edit product descriptions, It seems to be looking for the FCK editor even if you have NONE selected in the My Store area. And since it doesn't exist in the core without installing the plugin. it can't check for it.

After I installed the plugin. It no longer gives error.. even tho I am still not using it.

I can't duplicate this...

Perhaps you can describe the steps you took to get to this point?

1. Copied all 1.3.5 files to server. Overwrote all the 1.3.0.1 files.

2. Ran the Install, it upgraded the database with no problems.

3. Went to Admin->Category->Categories/Products

4. Selected an item.

5. Gives error mentioned above.

6. I made sure Admin->Configure->My Store->HTMLArea was set to NONE.

7. Same error.

8. I downloaded and copied the FCKEditor plugin for 1.3.5.

9. Problem went away.

So it seems if you dont have FCK editor installed already.. that it is checking something that doesn't exist or something. Same problem on my test site and my production site.

any mods/contributions installed?

lines 402 and 403 of that file say:```
<?php if ($_SESSION['html_editor_preference_status']=="FCKEDITOR") {
$oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('products_description[' . $languages[$i]['id'] . ']') ;

If you have not selected FCKEDITOR from the pulldown, you will not get the error.

It suggests to me that you had the plugin installed, then removed it, changed things, tested, and it was not working because it was still remembering your previous selection.
Normally closing your browser, or at least logging out of the Admin should be enough to clear the preference. Clearing browser cache may assist further.

I did have the folder originally when it was the folder in the root directory. But still had it set to none in the admin area.. maybe there was something left behind that caused it. Ah well its working now with the plugin folder there. I'll just leave well enough alone.
Thanks for quick replies
