Following Microsoft’s updates for August 2007 I received the following error on a DotNetNuke website: Error: Edit Text/HTML is currently unavailable.

The August 2007 Microsoft update had changed the handling for curly quotation marks. I have noticed that entries from some countries seem to favour these over the standard style of quotation mark. DotNetNuke of this vintage had this included in a number of places.
The error concerns the original FreeTextBox text editor. To correct the error the curly quotation marks in the file TextEditor.ascx should be replaced.
TextEditor.ascx is to be found in the controls directory:
/controls/TextEditor.ascx
Change the line which reads
<td id=”celTextEditor” Runat=”Server”><asp:panel id=”pnlBasicTextBox” Visible=”False” Runat=”server”>
to
<td id=”celTextEditor” Runat=”Server”><asp:panel id=”pnlBasicTextBox” Visible=”False” Runat=”server”>
