I have Roller 4.0 installed on a Linux box. It seems that the Xinha editor does not work properly with IE6. The cursor jumps all around as one types. It is very annoying and almost unusable. I normally use Firefox and Xinha seems to work fine with it but, unfortunately, many people still use IE. By the by, I'm not sure if Xinha behaves erratically with IE7 or not. At any rate, I tried to add alternative editors using the editor plugins and instructions at <http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Javanet/OptionalEditorAddinsForRoller> . The pertinent piece of my roller-custom-properties file now looks like this:

plugins.weblogEntryEditors=\
org.apache.roller.weblogger.ui.core.plugins.TextEditor,\
org.apache.roller.weblogger.ui.core.plugins.XinhaEditor,\
net.java.dev.roller.editorplugins.rte.RTEEditor,\
net.java.dev.roller.editorplugins.textjs.TextJSEditor

When I reload Roller, I have the choice of using the Text Editor, the RTE Editor Applet, and the Enhanced Text Editor and they all seem to work fine; however, the Xinha Editor no longer appears as an option even though it is listed as an editor in my roller-custom-properties file. Does anyone have any ideas as to why I might be experiencing this behavior? I have to admit that my Java knowledge is rather thin so please try to be as explicit as possible with your reply. Thanks very much in advance.
