Hi experts,
I have an problem with my text edior. in my text editor I have two iframes, one is for design mode, and another one is for preview mode. but if I insert a link when I was in design mode, then go to preview mode, and click on this link, it will direct me to this link page, then I can go back to design mode, but if I try to go to preview mode, it says Access Denied. so how can I avoid this error, and let the user can go back and forth between the design mode and the preview mode?
Thanks

It sounds like you load the link inside of your IFRAME that the link was in. When you try to put the page back into design mode, it tries to make the content of the IFRAME editable or set text in there and that is not allowed by the browser. Make sure you redirect the target of your IFRAME back to a local file (relative to your page) so that you won't get any permission errors before trying to run javascript on that content. This behavior is by design.
