Anyone who has had issues with the FreeTextBox in the past, either with DNN or without, in which the Editor is working along just fine and then suddenly one day you start getting the following error, there is hope yet:
FreeTextBox has not been correctly installed. To install FreeTextBox either:
(1) add a reference to FtbWebResource.axd in web.config:




path="FtbWebResource.axd"
type="FreeTextBoxControls.AssemblyResourceHandler, FreeTextBox" />



(2) Save the FreeTextBox image and javascript files to a location on your website and set up FreeTextBox as follows




I have reported the exactly problem and correction to the folks at FreeTextBox, but until they resolve the issue - here is how it occurs. The FreeTextBox now provides CSS capabilities within their editor, which means that they must parse your sites CSS files in order to know the specific names and such of these styles. Unfortunatly, the parser that they employ seems to have a minor defect. The appropriate style format in the style sheet is:

.StyleName
{
attribute: value;
}

If however, there is a space in front of the class name, the parser becomes invalidated determining that the name of a class has a length of zero, and bugs out. All you have to do is remove the leading spaces from class names! Hopefully they will correct this issue, but until then - understanding the problem will help you on your way.

Go Nuclear.
