Re: [Xsltforms-support] XSLTForms and TinyMCE (v 4.5.2 doesn't work; 4.3.12 does; ...)

[Alain C. <ala...@ag...>]

The current version of TinyMCE is now 4.5.3 and I have succeeded in 
integrating it in XSLTForms.

It appears that, with this version, the editor is not initialized enough 
when XSLTForms first tries to set its content. I had to add a try/catch 
statement to support this new behavior.

This will be committed as soon as possible.
