Believe it or not, I had actually installed the FCKEditor on my site,
but could not get it to configure properly.
I tried to switch the Image browser to CFM, but it kept going back to
PHP, which is running on our site,
but the PHP connector did not work -- kept saying it was not enabled,
when I had enabled it!
Then I tumbled to the possibility of using the CF implementation of
FCKEditor. I have seen a few Javascript
snippets that can be used to configure the Editor, but I am not a
Javascript junkie,
and if you don't get Javascript code right, debugging that code can be a
real pain.
My ColdFusion server is shared, so my ISP will not re-configure the
FCKEditor for me.
He, too, suggest installing my own copy of FCKEditor, not knowing I
already had tried that.
He gave me a clue as to how I could use Script tags to do this.
Today, when I got back to working on this issue, I find that my
configuration of FCKEditor
is now working! Maybe caching was keeping my changes from taking.
Things are looking up!
Thanks, Wes.

If you want full control in your hosted environment, I would just
download FCKEditor and use it the old fashioned way. :) Otherwise,
you could "hack" the settings a bit by setting them in a <script ..>
block just before your <cftextarea ...> tag code. All of the CFIDE code
will load at the top of your page. Any setting set below that might
override any above it. Something like....
<script ...> FCKConfig.ImageBrowser = true; </script>
<cftextarea ...>
I have not tried this... but it might be worth a shot.

Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] CF8 Rich Text Editor
Within minutes of writing my previous memo, I figured out how the
FCKEditor image browser works, so
the only question is how to get it enabled.

I have been trying to use the Rich Text editor (FCKEditor) available
through the <cftextarea> tag in CF8.
I have encountered two issues at this point I need help with.
I find that the FCKConfig.ImageBrowser parameter is set to false by
default, so the server browser button does not appear when you launch
the Image editor.
I know how to change this, but my SP does not provide access to my
CFIDE folder. Is there a way to change this parameter through code,
and if so, how?
I can make the button visible on my local PC, but when I click it, I
get a window that appears to be displaying a folder, but I don't know
which folder,
no files are displayed, and I can not get it to switch to another
folder. How is this file browser window supposed to work?
I'm waiting on tech support to address these issues, but do any of you
have any suggestions?
