folling this discussion and this link, I learnt that by adding document.domain = 'mydomain'; to the tinyMCE initializer file and tiny_mce_popup.js i can overe the cross domain problem.

I haven't tested it on a proper production server, but in my dev environment the base domain is localhost:8000 and my static files (also tinyMCE ones) are on localhost:88.

Adding document.domain = 'localhost:8000'; or document.domain = 'localhost:88'; doesn't solve the problem as I get the following error:

Uncaught Error: SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18

Any help?

Thanks

The document.domain setting only works if your using subdomains, not pletely different domains (different ports count as different domains). So you can have server1.mydomain. and server2.mydomain., in which case you set domain to mydomain. in both the main page and tiny_mce_popup.js. You can't however use mydomain. and otherdomain.. For more information on these restrictions see https://developer.mozilla/en/DOM/document.domain or http://msdn.microsoft./en-us/library/cc196989(VS.85).aspx

I believe there are plans to adjust the way TinyMCE works so that it can have a CDN version which is usable from any domain, but that doesn't currently exist.

Are you using Django ? I've answered this question below pertaining specifically to tinymce in django.
