Looks nice! Personally I like HTMLArea best

TinyMCE is actually what we used originally, but found it didn't have enough features.

Personally, I'm thinking of ways to make htmlarea or tinymce as add-on options, since the base install of CMS is getting to be ridiculously big.

We'd need a way to install it automatically, though...

Anyone have any experience with this open source embedded editor ?

That fckeditor looks quite nice.

I will start working on a mod that will let people use TinyMCE instead of HTML Area

TinyMCE seems to have a much more agressive programming team, much like wishy and the gang here, many updates, bug fixes and features added over the past few months whereas htmlarea seems to be stuck at 3.0 beta.

FCKEditor 2.0 RC2 is out
Whats new

I really like htmlarea and fckeditor looks nice (reminds me of dreamweaver) but seems to be missing the table tools. My initial impression of TinyMCE wasn't so good.

100% of my installs would include a gui / wysiwyg html editor if it were a module. 99.9% of my users need / want a gui / wysiwyg html editor, so

I vote to always have a gui / wysiwyg html editor as part of the core application and not a module.

Keep up the great work.

In FCKeditor RC2 you first add a table then if you right click on the table you will see all the table tools, add cells, add rows, add columns etc.

Demo here

wow... that's a really nice application!

The image management system seems to work really well too. The only thing I'd improve would be the ability to preview an image before actually selecting it.

Has anybody used both htmlarea and FCKeditor alot that can tell which one is better?

Of couse, unless it is a module I'd never be able to change the default editor out for another one.

The module in svn is updated to 2.0rc2. I didn't really test it too much, so if something seems off, please let me know.

With FCKeditor on my local setup I have to make the following changes for the image insert to work properly.

Code: Select all

Change modules\FCKeditor\editor\filemanager\browser\default\connectors\php\connector.php to point to the proper file storage area.

\modules\FCKeditor\fckconfig.js comment asp lines and uncomment php lines

UPDATE:
With changeset 1079 the above changes don't have any effect. When I choose 'browse server' from the insert image popup I get a blank folder. When I try to upload a file, to where ever it is going to upload it, I get a message , 'upload in progress please wait ...'

Is there some place to set the path for images with FCKeditor ?

Getting closer:

Line 118 added &ServerPath= to the end of FCKConfig.ImageBrowserURL.

Still makes its own Image directory below that ?
