Editor in Dialog: uneditable and cannot set value, using Firefox

[gemHadar]

An Editor placed in a Dialog is not editable and does not accept a value in Firefox (3.0.7).

Behavior in Safari 4 (OSX), Chrome (Win), IE6: editor is editable, editor content can be set using .attr('value', '...');

Behavior in Firefox (OSX, Win): editor is not editable (cannot enter any text), adding a link gives "dojo.doc is null" error in Firebug, content is not set via .attr('value', '...');

Last time it worked for me was in dojo nightly from 2008-08-09.

Well, Editor in Dialog is broken anyway because of #7716 but this seems like a more basic problem than that ticket.

Although, your test case is a bit suspect in that you should be setting width on the Editor, not the Dialog itself (this is how Dialog works).

But I suspect the real issue is that Dialog hides itself (in postCreate()) before editor gets a chance to initialize which then causes problems for some reason.

I tried your example, and reproduced the problem against 1.3, but it's working against the latest code. Not sure when exactly it was fixed.
