Patch to bxeConfig.js

Hi there

I needed to integrate the bitflux editor in Plone. While doing this I
found that the kupu editor adds some functions to Array.prototype, and
that this breaks BXE.

In bxeConfig.js, in the function bxeConfig.prototype.parseUrlParams
there is an iteration over the elements of an array. At the moment,
.split is called on every element. With the new members introduced by
kupu, there are now array elements that aren't strings, so .split raises
an error.

To avoid this, I test typeof p == "string" before trying the split.

I don't know if this is the best way, and there may be other vulnerable
spots in BXE. But for what it's worth, here's my patch to make BXE show
up in Plone:

=== js/bxeConfig.js
==================================================================
--- js/bxeConfig.js	(revision 2939)
+++ js/bxeConfig.js	(local)
 <at>  <at>  -326,11 +326,13  <at>  <at> 
 	this.urlParams = new Array ();
     var params =
window.location.search.substring(1,window.location.search.length).split("&");
     var i = 0;
-    for (var param in params)
-    {
-        var p = params[param].split("=");

Hi again

I think I've just found another one. In 'mozile/domlevel3.js'

function documentSaveXML(snode)
{
	[...]
	for(var i in ns ) {
		if (i == "xmlns") {
			snode.setAttributeNS(XMLNS,"xmlns",ns[i]);
		} else {
			snode.setAttributeNS(XMLNS,"xmlns:" + i , ns[i]);
		}
	}

Breaks with 'snode.setAttributeNS' undefined, and 'i' equal to
'contains', the name of one of the functions that kupu puts on
Array.prototype
No breakage without the kupu code. So the previous fix is not sufficient ..

Hi Christian

> Can you try again, something was wrong with the permissions :)

OK, will do.

I'm struggling to save & exit -- I do this (just read it as pseudocode ..)

            self.REQUEST.RESPONSE.setStatus(204)
            self.REQUEST.RESPONSE.setHeader('Location',
'http://localhost:8080/plone/xmldocs/1-AP011.xml/bxe-edit')
            return

and I end up at
  http://localhost:8085/plone/xmldocs/null
instead of at bxe-edit .. any idea why?
