    WYSIWYG editor insert image / select files problem

    The problem is when in the WYSIWYG editor while making a post if I click the insert image icon to insert a image the dialogue box opens and I chose files from my computer, when I click the select files button nothing happens on two of my sites. I have a third site that works as it should. I have compared the settings between the sites and I have them set the same for all the sites.
    I have version 4.2.2 pl1
    MySQL is 5.1.73
    PHP is 5.3.23
    this dose occur in the default style and there is no error message it just doesn't bring up the file selection box for my computer.
    I have tried FF and IE with the same resulting problem.
    I do have one forum that works as it should at http://www.2sc2879.com/forum/
    Here is the 2 forums that I am having problems with: http://baymeadowscommunitycouncil.net/forum/ and http://gonejetskifishing.com/forum.php

    Thanks for any help

    Do you have this line in the config.php file for all three forums?

    Add the following line to your config.php file under the <?php line:

    PHP Code:
    define('SKIP_ALL_ERRORS'true);

      I have just added the line define('SKIP_ALL_ERRORS', true); to all three forum config.php files found in the includes folder of each forum but that didn't solve the problem.
      Should I leave the line in the config.php file?

        would I be able to do an update, I mean re upload all the files and run update again or would this cause more problems?

          if I right click on the select files on the forum that is working as it should I get a box with flash player information.
          If I right click on the select files on the forums that is not working as it should I get the window with my normal right click options.
          I hope this helps somehow.

            All installs are on the same server? What is different in the configurations of the virtual hosts?

              Yes all install are on the same hoist, VPN.
              I have never changed anything different on the hoist.
              I have checked the .htaccess files and they are all the same for all three forums.
              It looks like the flash is not being called up for some reason.

                I did an upgrade by uploading all the files and running upgrade.php on the forum http://gonejetskifishing.com and this did not solve the problem, I get the same results when trying to insert an image with the select files.

                      This one will work correctly
                      <div id="yui_selectfiles" style="z-index: 9999999; width: 67px; height: 19px; left: 912px; top: 475px;">
                      <embed id="yuigen27" width="100%" height="100%" flashvars="allowedDomain=www.2sc2879.com&YUISwfId=yuigen27&YUIBridgeCallback=YAHOO.widget. FlashAdapter.eventHandler" menu="false" wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" name="yuigen27" style="" src="clientscript/yui/uploader/assets/uploader.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">

                      where this one doesn't
                      <div id="yui_selectfiles" style="z-index: 9999999; width: 67px; height: 19px; left: 912px; top: 889px;">
                      <embed id="yuigen27" width="100%" height="100%" flashvars="allowedDomain=www.gonejetskifishing.com&YUISwfId=yuigen27&YUIBridgeCallback=YAH OO.widget.FlashAdapter.eventHandler" menu="false" wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" name="yuigen27" style="" src="clientscript/yui/uploader/assets/uploader.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">

                      I do not write programs or code but there must be something different between these sites to make them work differently.

                        I have somehow got the site http://gonejetskifishing.com/ working correctly but forum at http://baymeadowscommunitycouncil.net/forum/ is still not working. I do not know what I did to get the one working and not the other. I have tried so many things I do not know what worked.

                          This is what I used to fix the problem. http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...tched+uploader

                          VB has decided to remove the .swf file because of a small exploit. So if you upgraded like I did to V4.1.12 the file was blank. So this file will fix the problem. All VB needs to do is add it into the downloads and it will bring back the function of the uploader. Why they don't do it you ask? They have the new version 5 they want to sell to you.

                            I have tried installing that file in the clientscript/yui/assets folder and that did not work for me. I also looked in my other forums and that file was not there and they do not have this problem.

                              ~~For example, If I go to the quick reply box and click the insert image button I will get a window that pops up titled insert image with two choices, from computer and from URL. If I chose from computer then click the select files button nothing happens. I should get a pop up window like the one below so that I can select my files.

                              This problem will occur when using the quick editor or the advance editor.
                              I can insert images in other ways but this way seems to be the easy way.
