Chris,
Here is a URL with some of the compatibility information about TinyMCE:
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/tinymce/docs/compatiblity_chart.html
I have done 90% of my work on Firefox/MacOS10.4, with some Firefox/Linux
and
Safari/MacOS10.4 testing as well. Safari doesn't work great, but I have
heard
some things about Safari's JavaScript interpreter that point to Safari
as the
source of the problem.
TinyMCE has a lot of fancy plugins - in fact, you can make it work
pretty much
like M$ Word if you configure it correctly. I believe the plugins that
are "MSIE
only" are some of the "fluff" plugins (like the "iespell" spell checker,
the
graphics object z-layering, etc.). All of the more "normal" HTML-based
formatting plugins (styles, fonts, colors, links, images, etc.) have
worked fine
on Firefox.
What happened when you tried to use Opera with their example page?

I went to the TinyMCE site to check out the examples. It didn't seem to
load in my Opera on both Linux and Windows at all.
In addition i found this on the site:
"This page shows all available plugins that are included in the TinyMCE
distribution. Some of these plugins will only be visible on MSIE due to
the lack of some support in FF. For more details on the various options
on
TinyMCE check the manual or for more third party plugins check the
plugin
section."
I am just thinking if this plugin is extensible enough to deply with RC?
IMHO everything should work in Opera, MSIE and Firefox without
exceptions
(or at least without major exceptions).
Am I missing something here? I really would like to see the WYSIWYG work
in Opera.

Hi all,
I have been working on integrating the TinyMCE WYSIWYG HTML editor into
RoundCube to be able to compose HTML messages. I posted a description
and some
screen shots in the forums a little while ago:

Topic: HTML / Wyswig Editor for sending mail ?
I recently merged my code into the latest revision of the SubVersion
trunk (r254),
so the patch should go smoothly with any recently obtained working
copy.
The
patch requires downloading and installing the TinyMCE package from
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com
at the same level as RoundCube in your web server document folder
hierarchy. I
made the patch available for download here:
http://stadtherr.bounceme.net/files/tinymce_rev254.patch
The patch contains a couple other minor changes that I can separate out
if
necessary:
fixed variable name typos in main.inc
fix to url_chars in func.inc (it used to split URLs on ";" characters)
I've tested it with forwarding various commercial HTML messages, and
composing/replying
to my own messages. The editor itself supports a large number of HTML
features,
but a subset of those features can be made available by initializing
the
editor
differently in the JavaScript code (see the "tinyMCE.init()" call in
compose.inc,
and the TinyMCE documentation for details).
I'd like to add a checkbox/toggle in the compose window to allow users
to choose
between HTML/plain-text when composing a message - that's next on my
list.
Take a look and let me know what you think, and if it sounds like
something that
should go into the baseline.
Thanks for all the great work! I chose RoundCube after trying out 5 or
6
other
WebMail applications. Some others had more features, but the RoundCube
user
interface made all the difference!
