Hi guys, I've uploaded my sample and the code to http://www.zenesis.com/qx/dev/myapp/source/ - there's a readme at http://www.zenesis.com/qx/dev/README.txt and if you want to take a look at the code it's http://www.zenesis.com/qx/dev.zip.

I think that there is a reasonable amount of work to add rich controls to the editor and make it a very accessible and easy to use component, especially for the smarter features like image pickers and other dialogs etc so it would be great to work together on this. Is it possible for you to put your RichEditor on the web somewhere? I need to finish some things off today but upload it later on for you to look at.

Problem for me is that the "firefox focus bug" is still there, try this code: qx.Class.define("bfly.admin.Application", { extend : qx.application.Standalone, members : { // [Entry point] main: function() { // [SuperClass] this.base(arguments); // [Main Container] this._container = new qx.ui.container.Composite( new qx.ui.layout.VBox().set({ spacing: 1 }) ); this.getRoot().add(this._container, {edge:0}); // [MenuBar] this._tabView = new qx.ui.tabview.TabView(); this._container.add(this._tabView, {flex: 1}); for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) { var page = new qx.ui.tabview.Page("Page " + i); var area = new htmlarea.HtmlArea(); page.setLayout(new qx.ui.layout.Canvas); page.add(area, {edge: 0}); this._tabView.add(page); } } } }); When you use TABs, you can't focus to previously hidden HtmlAreas in Firefox. c) And for John, John, I'm doing something very similar to your work. I called it RichEditor and it's HtmlArea with toolbars with some customizing way. My code depends to our system, but I try to make it generic. We can colaborate on this if you want.
