Description
I've tried to "translate" the front-page to Chinese, but got no editor window. Then I simply saved the empty page and tried to edit it, but I still get no editor window. The major problem is: There is not even a <textarea/> to work with. In the attached screen shot, you can see the problem. I've tried with both FF20 and Chromium.

The bug prevents me from editing any 'Page' in Chinese, rendering Chinese completely unusable for all normal use cases. I just checked: The problem is reproducible with both Firefox and Chromium, and also across several standard object types (Page, Event, News Item). In other words, having a Plone site in Chinese seems to be nigh impossible atm. To reproduce the problem, it should be sufficient to install these products in a new site:
plone.app.multilingual 1.0rc1
plone.multilingual 1.0rc1

- Resolution set to fixed
this is fixed with: https://github.com/plone/Products.TinyMCE/pull/56
released: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.TinyMCE/1.3.5
suggest using the latest version Plone 4.3.2
(plone.app.multilingual = 1.1, plone.multilingual = 1.1.1) that should solve this problem.
please re-verify that it is still an issue on the current latest releases (4.3.2 or 4.2.6) and reopen.

I just tried with a completely empty site (new ZODB, no other addons) and Plone 4.3.2 and p.a.m 1.2.1, and the problem persists. Need a screenshot?

I played some more and found that, in Traditional Chinese (Taiwan), there *is* an editor window, but in Simplified Chines (PRC), there is not.

Strangely, it works well in the my environment(Plone 4.3.2, p.a.m 1.2.1/1.1.1, Chrome 31 and FF 25). I can't reproduce this issue.

jianaijun: What do you suggest that I try? I see the problem with
$ grep lingua bin/secondary '/srv/zope/eggs/plone.app.multilingual-1.2.1-py2.6.egg', '/srv/zope/eggs/plone.multilingualbehavior-1.2-py2.6.egg', '/srv/zope/eggs/plone.multilingual-1.2.1-py2.6.egg', '/srv/zope/eggs/archetypes.multilingual-1.2-py2.6.egg',
and FF 25.0.1 on Linux, and with Chromium Version 29.0.1547.57 Built on Debian 7.1, running on Debian 7.2 (217859), where I cannot see the main body edit window, regardless whether I try "Edit" or "Edit with babel view".
