What I personally find odd about them is that they're almost invariably way more complicated than I'm sure is necessary. But by and large I'm waiting for them to mature a bit -- I had a client request for one recently and spent several hours just trying to figure out where to _begin_ modifying FCK Editor and couldn't do it. Had better luck with HTMLEdit but still not good enough for the client to use. Never did get around to TinyMCE. Although had I my druthers I would just tell them all that letting them format their text is a bad idea and they should let professionals _not_ apply colors like hot-pink text on an orange background with 20pt, bold, italic, underlined and blinking text. As seems to be their invariable pattern. s. isaac dealey 954.927.5117 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=44477&DE=1 http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=45569&DE=1 http://www.fusiontap.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:186609 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
