What is the best way to disable TinyMCE. I am stick of it stuffing up my code.

I see that it can be set to be disabled at startup. Is the the way to go?

You can also set it to not start on page load, which will let you turn it on if needed...

Hi Wishbone - just didn't like the way it kept interfering with my code. It would add extra divs and didn't like anything unusual like the code I used for my rounded corner boxes:

<div class="rcbox">
<div class="rctop">
<div></div></div>

I had to comment the empty divs and put them on single lines:
<div class="rcbox">
<div class="rctop">
<div><!--comment--></div>
</div>

I ended up doing what Dr.CSS has suggested and disabled it at startup, once I found that option. I don't need it for myself but wil need to know how it works for clients.

Thanks.
