First reported UI error of 1.4 (and the fix)

If you are getting this error message:

[string "Interface\FrameXML\UIParent.lua"]:1306:attempt to call global 'FCF_UpdateCombatLogPosition' (a nil value)

You most likely are using the "Floating Chat Frame XML" (ie mouse scrolling of your chat window)

Look for either of these files:

- FloatingChatFrame.xml
- FloatingChatFrame.lua

in your ../World of Warcraft/Interface/FrameXML folder. Delete them, and the error will go away.

That is a bit brutal of a fix, deleting the files that is.

Another brutal fix would be adding 2 lines to the floatingchatframe.lua file at the end of the file.

Add these 2 lines after the last line.

Code:
function FCF_UpdateCombatLogPosition()
end
Have a nice day!
