hi, i am currently using rails version 2.2.2.  
and using fckeditor\_textarea.  
here is the code:

\<%= fckeditor\_textarea(:emailcontent,:body, {:toolbarSet =\> ‘Basic’,  
:width =\> ‘100%’, :height =\> ‘100%’}) %\>  
where emailcontent is the model(object) name,  
and body is method.  
but it’s not working,however same code is working in any version below  
2.2.2.  
The error is undefined method ‘relative\_url\_root’.  
Any reason?  
Thanks.

There is been a Fix for Rails 2.2

in the file app/controllers/fckeditor\_controller.rb  
look for  
uploaded = request.relative\_url\_root.to\_s+“#{UPLOADED}/#{params[:Type]}”

replace it with this  
uploaded =  
ActionController::Base.relative\_url\_root.to\_s+“#{UPLOADED}/#{params[:Type]}”

similarly in the file lib/fckeditor.rb  
replace  
js\_path = “#{request.relative\_url\_root}/javascripts”  
with  
js\_path = “#{ActionController::Base.relative\_url\_root}/javascripts”
