Justin

I have done some more research in the underlying code. The main problem that really throws Firefox is a missing end comment.

The line is
            <!-- multiple list sending is not supported (apparently)
Completing the comment clears the problem.

I have traced this to line 78 in the "multiple_list_sending_widget.tmpl" file.

I have corrected this in my installation and this change has now restored correct operation to the Attachments area as well as the display etc of the fckeditor in the HTML text field.

Hope this helps

Best regards
