Error: could not find the template function: TinyMCE_advanced_getEditor Template

I was excited about the new WordPress 2.1 release and wanted to update the WordPress installs at some sites.

Ran through the usual WordPress upgrade process but when I logged back into admin area after the upgrade.

I hit write and this funny error message made me investigate what could have gone wrong.

Error: could not find the template function: TinyMCE_advanced_getEditor Template

So next time if you get the same error message after upgrading WordPress Try This

  • Delete and Reupload your wp-includes/js folder
  • IE did not show any error message, so i tried clearing the Firefox Cache and Enabled /Disabled JavaScript in FF2.0

Worked Like Charm!

Professional LAMP from Wrox – Cool Book

lamp Professional LAMP: Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP5 Web Development
by Jason Gerner, Elizabeth Naramore, Morgan Owens, Matt Warden ISBN: 0-7645-9723-X
December 2005
379 pages

Picked this book for about 400 bucks or 10 USD roughly at a local store. Was attracted to the title Professional LAMP. So decided to get this one.

I love to read these tech books. But its so costly and I read it pretty fast within 1 or 2 days.

Hope someone could finance me for these books ;P

This book is a great compilation of resources on the LAMP platform.

Something on AJAX, PHP , PHP5, MySQL..

Loads of info.. for people would like to know.. This book – I cant call it in-depth or

comprehensive, but highly informative.

It touches so many points other books falter to cover.

The book has an interesting addon.

Language Translation

They compare the commonly used syntax of PHP, ASP ,ASP.Net and JSP.

Pretty useful for web programmers working on diverse applications.

Conclusion :- worth buying, a worthy reference tool, a great book for a beginner.

Rexv.org – powerful regex evaluator

There are some ajax regex tools to help test regular expressions. Recently I came upon rexv.org, which really is the swiss army knife of online reg ex tools. It supports three different regex modes: PHP PCRE, PHP Posix, javascript. Also includes options for greediness, case sensitivity, unicode, and others.

It evaluates your regex in real time, and also has some a nice tab on the left with syntax help. Browser support is listed as:

  • Internet Expolorer 5+.
  • Mozilla Firefox 1.0+
  • Opera 7.54+
  • Safari 1.2+ââ?¬â?¢

I know I can use all the help I can get with regex, so I love seeing more tools available like this.
