Hi Don > On rolling out my own, ...
I wasn't suggesting you reinvent the wheel.. you can try somebody else's wheel if you don't like Adobe's heavyweight dragster wheels. <cf_tinyMCE> shouldn't take a CF developer half an hour to knock-up <cf_YUIEditor> -- probably about 2 minutes. I can't disagree much with your grievances but what I don't get is.. why push Adobe when all the real momentum is through the open source community? I understand though that Adobe have poured petrol onto an already burning development cycle, maybe your approach is the best way to get things changed. I guess if you jump on the FCK community with these issues the answer would be "Good point.. please go and fix it." .. really the cheek of those open source folk!!!. What communities like that really need is capable developers who can be some good designers as well. http://www.fckeditor.net/whatsnew C ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2008 6:42 PM Subject: Re: Adobe, please improve FckEditor integration w/ Cold Fusion 8 > Hi Chris, > > On your "some things already in the pipeline.", I don't get it. > I simply want a lean (hey, not mean :) text editor that would work well > with cf8, > core editing features, Bold, List (ordered & unordered), TextColor, Link, > that's it, > On rolling out my own, I got B and L working for IE (but L, TC seems more > involved... > why re-invent the wheel? > > And not to overload zillions of js or whatever to a user's browser (be IE > or FF2 or...); also they have to be flexible, otherwise, integration would > be problematic, as in my case ... > > This is so common sense, why capable developers can't be some good > designers as well? > Look at the FckEditor's fckconfig.js for instance, it does not really work > as it intended, at least as far as my case is concerned... > > .... > > Thanks. > > Don >>Hi Don >> >>http://www.fckeditor.net/roadmap some things already in the pipeline. >> >>CF8's "integration" of the editor is somewhat minimal as the core FCK code >>is really simple to embed on a page without the use of a CF tag, as are >>many >>of the alternative editors. >> >>Considering how I can't keep pace with FCK releases these days..
