The code:

.....

<iframe 
	id="idHTMLEditor" src="http://mail.yahoo.com"
	style="
	display: block; 
	overflow: auto;
	margin: 0px;
	border: 0px;
	padding: 0px;"></iframe>

......


<script language="javascript">
window.onload = function() {
	var oHTMLEditor;
	
	oHTMLEditor = document.getElementById("idHTMLEditor");
	oHTMLEditor.contentWindow.document.designMode = "on";    
}
</script>

--------------------------------------------

After the yahoo mail frontpage is loaded, try to type a character somewhere.
Instead of entering the character into the page, it pops up the Find toolbar at
the bottom.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a page that contains IFRAME with src="http://mail.yahoo.com"
2. Create javascript inside the page with window.onload = function() { // That
changes the designMode of the mentioned IFrame to ON 
3. Try to type something inside the IFrame content
4. The browser pops up Find toolbar instead of entering the typed character

Actual Results:  
The browser pops up Find toolbar instead of entering the typed character

Expected Results:  
Typed character should appear.
what version of composer were you using? (composer is not part of firefox)
with composer from linux suite trunk 2005040105, the JS you provided does not
enable designMode.

Try this (according to http://www.mozilla.org/editor/midasdemo/). This works fine:

<html>
<head>
<title>Testing designMode in Firefox</title>

</head>
<body>
Testing IFrame:
<iframe id="idHTMLEditor" style="
	display: block; 
	overflow: auto;"></iframe>


<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
	var oHTMLEditor;
	oHTMLEditor = document.getElementById("idHTMLEditor");
	oHTMLEditor.contentWindow.document.designMode = "on";    

	oHTMLEditor.height = 600;
	oHTMLEditor.width = 800;
}
</script>

</body>
</html>


---------------------------------------

But when I define iframe's src, it opens Find bar when I type something on the
iframe document:

<html>
<head>
<title>Testing designMode in Firefox</title>

</head>
<body>
Testing IFrame:
<iframe id="idHTMLEditor" style="
	display: block; 
	overflow: auto;" src="http://www.mozilla.org/"></iframe>


<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
	var oHTMLEditor;
	oHTMLEditor = document.getElementById("idHTMLEditor");
	oHTMLEditor.contentWindow.document.designMode = "on";    

	oHTMLEditor.height = 600;
	oHTMLEditor.width = 800;
}
</script>

</body>
</html>


----------------------
Actually

the last two commands:
	oHTMLEditor.height = 600;
	oHTMLEditor.width = 800;
were not executed. 

And, oHTMLEditor.contentWindow.document.designMode is undefined when Iframe's
src is defined.

Is this by design?

FYI, In IE, the edit mode (designMode) is fine even when IFrame's src is predefined.
ok, this is editor, not composer.  I can reproduce the bug with linux trunk
2005040201.

JS Console says:
Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to set property HTMLDocument.designMode

To add, this problem arises when the IFrame's src is predefined. Meaning
designMode='on' is only allowed when IFrame's src is not defined (no src
attribute in IFrame).

I used the Linux version downloaded the latest through Ubuntu Hoary
(mozilla-firefox 1.0.2). I guess the Windows version should exhibit the same
problem.
You can't set the designmode on document that are on a different domain. It seems that is what you are trying to do with your testcase, not?
