wikifield editor doesn’t load in Internet Explorer

[Matthias Ronge]

When you accept editing a task, there is a free text field which is equipped with a comfortable HTML editor. The editor doesn’t load in Internet Explorer, you are presented with the HTML source in a multi line text input box. Internet Explorer’s console throws the following error when loading the page:

SCRIPT1028: Bezeichner, Zeichenfolge oder Zahl erwartet
AktuelleSchritteAlle.jsf, Zeile 533 Zeichen 9

This refers to the last line of the following Javascript block:

        tinyMCE.init({
         mode : "exact",
         elements : "htmleditorform:myTextArea",
         theme : "advanced",
         width : "100%",
          height : "200",
          plugins : "safari,pagebreak,style,table,save,advhr,emotions,iespell,inlinepopups,insertdatetime,preview,print,contextmenu,paste,fullscreen,noneditable,visualchars,nonbreaking",

         // Theme options
         theme_advanced_buttons1 : "save,|,bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,|,formatselect,fontsizeselect",
         theme_advanced_buttons2 : "",
         theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
         theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
         theme_advanced_toolbar_align : "left",
         theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom",
         theme_advanced_resizing : true,
        });

Its an easy fix: remove last comma before "});" and it will works on IE 8 (Windows XP). Patch attached.
