I've implemented that editor on an experimental area of a site I'm working
on and it's a beaut!  It's simple to use, no heaps and heaps of
configuration files to muck about with.  It's great for what I think would
be the majority of applications for this kind of tag.

I like the fact that the formatting options are limited, so non-technical
users can't experiment with html tags and wreck the look and feel of my
site.  I can restrict the html they can use.  And it's cfc-friendly.



I would like to see the "old browsers" handled by replacing the tag with a
standard textarea tag rather than bump them off to an "oldbrowser.htm" file.
Is this easy to do?



Cheers,

That depends.  If 5% of users are non-IE users, then I can't really spend 
more than 5% of my development time on making things work for them, can 
I?  That's the downside to the non-IE compatible browsers.  Remember when 
word processors *had* to be WordStar file compatible?  It's the same thing 
with browsers.  I'm all for competition, but browser companies should take 
note of OpenOffice - it can read MS Word formats well, and that's what's 
making it successful.
