[Building Sakai] CKEditor behavior observations in Samigo

[Adrian Fish]

Sam was on the button when he asked if portal chat was switched on. It
turns out that IE9 ignores the pointer-events css rule which is used in the
portal chat box container. All browsers excepting IE honour it and drop
mouse clicks through to the underlying element, CKeditor in this case. This
may be happening in the Samigo case too.

I'm looking at workarounds that don't involve just shutting down portal
chat. An obvious one is not to use IE :) There are potentially others
involving looking up the element underneath at the click coords and
forwarding the click to that. I'm looking into that.

Mustansar, do you have portal chat enabled?

Cheers,
Adrian.
