After playing around with this for about 2 hours, I have determined  
that this is a (critical) bug in fckeditor; more specifically,  
ReplaceTextarea().  I don't see what you are seeing, but instead I see  
the fckeditor load, then the window blinks for a second, and then it  
*looks* like it is completely loaded.  Just 2 problems: 1.) all text  
that was previous in the textarea is gone and 2.) clicking on  
heading/font, or clicking anywhere in the textarea, outputs JS  
warnings.  Strangely enough - if I put an alert() in the middle of the  
fckeditor code, the delay it takes for me to close the alert box  
appears to be enough to allow the loading process to proceed  
correctly.  I see the textarea text correctly populated into the  
fckeditor window and i get no javascript errors when I click on  
various stuff.  So my guess is that something is trying to be placed  
in a DOM element too quickly on IE6 before that element is ready.

Can anyone else reproduce this?
